Spring has Sprung in a Deciduous Forest

After our first observation of spring life. We went out for our second about three weeks later at the same locations as last time. Everything that we did the first time either produced more or died. We saw that the cones on the end of the pine tree branches had gotten bigger. There was more butterflies than last time, flowers had already bloomed, their was bugs flying around, and the grass was really green unlike last time when it was brown. I could hear birds chirping and a little wind that made the leaves blow back and forth. As I was listening I could feel the light wind blow through my hair and I could feel the warmth of the sun as it beamed down.

We left the edge of the field to go down the hill, through the trails, and down to the pond. As we got to the pond it was all open so the sun was beaming down more than in the field but this time there was a medium wind that rocked the branches back and forth. When I got done feeling how the nature was I stopped to see what i would hear on this beautiful day. I heard the wind whistling as it went through the trees and the water as the wind blow it up on shore. This time though there was a lot things I could see other than last time. I saw the pond in front of me with trees all around the pond except in one spot. But in that one stop is were I could see a bus garage with a lot of buses and other vehicles in that area. The trees around the pond were blooming and their was a dock that went out in the pond. Plus their were female cones and pine cones growing around the pond that were dying.

When we left the pond we went down the trails until we found a good spot on the creek. As I walked down the trails you could hear the water rolling down the stream, then you could hear the scuffling of leaves as people walked down the trail, and the sound of branches cracking as they rock back and forth from the wind. This sight was very different than the last it was cooler because the trees provided shade and it was a light wind because the trees were taking all the impact of the wind. But I saw a couple little frogs. Someone tried to catch the but they would always get away. We also seen a crawfish, trees blooming, leaves, and a water strider gliding across the creek
