For this nature walk, I went to the Pine Tree Reserve, along with the Chestnut Hill Reservoir located on the edge of campus. The weather was quite clear and the temperature was mild (around 60 degrees), which made the walk, and spotting organisms very easy and enjoyable. I noticed lots of different plants with a variety of characteristics, many of which had small flowers growing from them. There were plants of all sizes, from moss to large trees. As we approach mid-fall, it is clear that the trees and plants are starting to change and wilt a bit. The leaves on trees are changing colors, many leaves are already falling, and many plants are bare. As we start to approach winter, I am sure there will be changes to the plants and animals in this area that will be interesting to observe/document.
