Observation #2

Name: My Backyard
Date: May 7th
Time: 7:34 P.M.
Temp: 43 degress
Weather: Cloudy and Rainy
Wind: No wind
Soil: Wet from rain

Over the past two days there hasn't been much change in animal appearances. Although, there is green grass finally starting to come in. Otherwise the willows are still bare due to the moose continuously eating them. Maybe the organisms aren't coming around because my dad decided to drain my pond, but then again this will only help the birds and moose. The rain has kept the biodiversity not to low because I did see a fox up on my berm. The population of birds increased tremendously since the last time. There were little black birds (type?) a top of aspen trees most likely looking for predators. Sound wise, I could hear some geese nearby along with frogs, due to my pond. A few more weeds have popped up which will be a survival need for many of the animals. My area has been a little boring, so hopefully the weather will become better and more animals and interactions will happen!!

Good observations and accounts of various flora and fauna of your area. Work on integrating some of the ecology concepts to add depth to your observations. When talking about the man made pond you can talk about how by creating a new niche you increased the biodiversity of your area. Also, proof read for comma splices and a few spelling and grammar errors!
