Chestnut Hill Reservoir, Tuesday September 27

I took my walk late in the morning, starting in Pine Tree Preserve on campus, and then taking a lap around the reservoir, stopping along the way to investigate the wooded areas which can be found just off the path. This area appeared to have more species of plants than did Pine Tree Preserve and appeared to be less well-managed, for much of the growth here was weedy, and the beds of decaying leaves grew quite thick. For whatever reason, I only encountered plants, lichen, and fungi—maybe I just wasn't looking closely enough!
