Site Observation #2

The wind was blowing and the ground was covered with brown and orange leaves. Trees were lying on the ground here and there, most of them decayed. There were many signs of life around: animal droppings, holes in the dirt and in trees, and deer tracks. Many geese were swimming in a lake, which is where deer tracks were spotted. Fox droppings were found on a decayed tree lying on the ground. Near a creek leading to the lake was a hole, showing that something is or was living in it.

Site Observation #1

Dark, gray clouds covered the sky over the trees and train tracks. The snow was starting to melt and froze in some places. Deer and fox tracks were found next to the train tracks. The tracks seemed fairly new. A few feet away from the tracks was a dead tree surrounded in dead leaves, poison ivy, and fallen branches. In the tree was a gaping hole, about a foot wide. Several yards away from the tree, fungus was found on a tree branch lying on the ground.
