Site Observation One Day Four

On the official day for these observations, I was (sadly) absent from school, so I did not get to go on the epic walk of algae and falling trees here with Mrs. Richardson's class. :[

Fortunately, there is a magnificent pond right near my home! So, after school the next day, I made the trek back behind the house to seek out some fuzzy, green plant life!

This was the first and most bountiful patch of algae that I found.  It's absolutely thriving!
The first site I selected was at the bank of the pond nearest to the path, beside the pond's small wooden dock.  It was very quiet, much more so than observation sites at school, where buses and students' voices sound perpetually.

What's more, it was a wonderful day outside and only around five o'clock, so it was still quite warm.
