Organisms seen: Lost of mosquitoes flying around the area, two people walking along the path and one dog, along with two black squirrels one in a tree and the other on the path, American pokeweed plant, most likely a wild blackberry vine, decay of leaves along the path from being stepped on, and possibly a small ground burrow of a small mammal
Organisms heard: Lots of tree crickets and katydids, squirrels, cars, tractor, and possibly minnows and little fish.
Changes since last visit 09/05/26: The river has more of an edge to it along with lower levels of water. Relating to the lower levels the water also appears to be clearer. A slight decline of greenery was also observed since the last visit.
Observations: After learning about the high levels of phosphorus in the soil that runs off into rivers and streams which eventually leads to lakes it makes sense why the river was so high and murky looking the last visit since it rained.
