5:00 P.M.
Sunrise: 7:17 A.M.
Sunset: 8:00 P.M.
Length of Day: 12h, 43m
Temperature: 79º
Organisms: I noticed a lot of noise coming from the pond; they were most likely cicadas or other bugs. I noticed a squirrel running also. Otherwise it was pretty quiet out.
Research Question: No leaves have started falling yet but coloration has started. I noticed that the farther I got away from the pond, the more the leaves were starting to color. The coloration tended to happen mostly with the Sassafras trees; however, the oaks trees follow the same pattern but have not colored quite as much. I also noticed that many of the trees at the trails have been planted in nice, neat rows.
