EcoEvo Nature walk 3

The focus of this nature walk was plants. The day before it was pouring rain so outside was still a little damp. The second I started my nature walk I found moss which was really cool considered I had just finished and lecture and podcast focused on mosses. A lot of the plants that I saw on my first nature walk have died but I was able to find this really nice flower. With each nature walk, I think my observations have improved.

EcoEvo Nature walk 2

This is my second nature walk. I went out later than I did the last time. It was a lot colder. I decided to go deeper into the woods this time and I found more fungi than last time. There were a lot more leaves on the ground. There was this one stump that I found and it had this red fungus on it that I thought was really pretty.

EcoEvo Nature walk 1

On Sunday I took my first nature walk since covid. It was a little warm. There were a few bugs out, most of the trees were green. There were a few really pretty red, yellow, orange, and dark purple almost black leaves. There were some cute squirrels, chipmunks, and birds. They were eating and scavenging so I couldn't get any pictures but it was nice to observe. While I was walking I noticed a lot of lichen and I ran into a tree stump with some fungi growing out of it. Generally I enjoyed myself and think I might go on another nature walk soon.
