3rd Nature Walk
Today, I went out to the Houghton Garden. On the way to the garden, I could already feel the coming of Fall, as the roads were full of fallen leaves of red and yellow. In the garden, I immediately saw that a lot of plant species that were green the previous weeks have now gone brown or fallen to the ground. Yet, I still found some plant species that are still lively and even with seeds or fruits. On the rocks, there still existed green mosses, an example of bryophyta. I also caught some plants that sort of looked like ferns(polypodiopsida) but it turned out to be a different plant species when I checked in with iNaturalist suggestions. Obviously, there were a bunch of evergreen trees (gymnosperms) but some of them were cut down to their stumps so I couldn't figure out which tree species it exactly was. I also found some plants with red and green fruits(angiosperms), among all those plants that were withering and turning brown.
