Field study 1:
Date & Time: 6:20pm on 9/8/26
Weather: 77°, cloudy, and slight rain
Length of day: 12hrs 50min
Observations:
There were a lot of squirrels climbing around and a lot of cricket and frog sounds. I could also hear the sound of a woodpecker in one of the trees. It was raining a little bit but not enough to get too wet. I noticed how a lot of the trees are still pretty green although theres one towards the back that is starting to turn colors already.
Field study 2:
Date & Time: 4:50pm on 9/27/26
Weather: 70°, sunny, and slightly windy
Length of day: 11hrs 55min
Observations:
The leaves on the trees were a lot more colorful/looked like they were about to turn colors. The trees were dropping a lot of acorns as well. I noticed that someone had tried to build a fort on the side of the big dead tree that was different than the last time I was there. I also saw a few birds and a big woodpecker. There were a lot of brown squirrels and chipmunks running around too.

Field Study 3:
Date & Time: 4:10pm on 10/11/26
Weather: 70° & sunny
Length of day: 11hrs 15min
Observations:
Today it was very warm and sunny out. It was pretty busy at Saugutuck Dunes with a lot of people heading down to the beach. There were a lot of birds and another woodpecker. There were a lot of squirrels too. They were burrowing acorns in the ground. The trees are a lot less green and a lot of them are more yellow and red. You cant really tell in the pictures but they are changing.
Good start but look around a little more...any other birds? Any flowers? Specific types of trees starting to turn or just all at the back? If you give a little more description it will be easier to compare future visits.
ReplyDeletePlease make your next field notes a new post so it shows up at the top. Your info is good. Give a few more details/comparisons. How much color are you seeing...any particular locations?
