Observation #2

Site-Backyard

Date-May 7, 2008

Time-7:35 P.M.

Temp. 41 degrees

Weather- sunny during the day then got very cloudy which caused it to rain which caused slight fludding in some areas.

Wind Conditions- wind stopped after the rain started to fall. After rain ended later there was a slight breeze

Soil Conditions-Rain helped vegitation alot. helped the flowers and trees start to growing. It dampened the soil and caused certain areas to be muddy.

Hypothesis- Grass will become alot greener and lots more vegitation will form by next week?

Notes-Lots more birds and animals starting to appear. Snow is practically gone and that means it melted so the water will help the grass and wildlife. It also rained that will help all sorts of animals. Since water is melting which is causing drout it will push underground animals out to the surface and we will be seeing all different types of animals and plant life. Birds appearing all over and eating more food some nesting in trees and finding places to live.

Great observations, but in the future for your notes section be sure to write in complete sentences and thoughts. Also expand your observations by tying them to the ecological terms and concepts to make your journal more sophisticated.
