Sep. 8 Oct. 15  Nov. 3 Nov. 24 Final field study notes and details:  There were almost no sounds of life except for an owl somewhere to the east of me, and the only sounds were the distant cars on the freeway and on the highway and the rustling of the wind through the dead leaves and branches of plants. It was really eerie actually. The grass still had a green hue to it, but almost everything else was dead around the pond.  The temperature was 51 degrees, with a high of 51 and a low of 30.  The time I visited was 3:39 PM, the day light started at 7:48 and will end at 5:14, making the day 9 hours and 26 minutes long.  The weather was cloudy and slightly windy.  (I only have 4 pictures for some reason, I must have forgotten to take one, whoops. :/)

There were quite a few birds but they were hard to hear over the wind.

 September 27, 2025 | 9:47 AM | 66 degrees Fahrenheit | Sunrise: 7:38 | Sunset: 7:31   Length of day: 11 hours, 53 minutes | High temperature: 77 degrees | Low temperature: 56 degrees Organisms seen, felt, and heard: it was a very sunny morning, and all different sorts of birds were singing. There were many that I could not name, but I saw several flying overhead. I heard a few frogs by the water, and saw a few jumping between weeds and sticks. There were many different flowers and plants, and all of them grew together in a way that was totally uncontrolled and yet more pleasing to the eye than any manmade structure. The way that the sun bounced off the dew on the grass was something that I see everyday, but don't properly appreciate. There were also a few people walking their dogs peacefully, and there was an unspoken agreement to leave the park quiet and personal.  Improved sounds map:  2 sketches:
