Field study #1

  Time of pictures: 3:16 Weather: Cloudy and a wet, given that it rained earlier in the day. Temperature: 75 Farenheit This is my sound map on the specific area by Macatawa river that i was at. I'm guessing that lots of bugs was given to the rise in humidity, and there was lots of river noise, as well as trees. Cicadas were prominent. This is one of my pictures, this is the plant life that is directly touching the Macatawa river, and we see how it's sort of mossy and adjusted to this wet environment. Lots os algae and cattails. This is a bigger picture of the environment, as we see we are surrounded by trees, the river, and lots of vegetation. There is a pile of dry sticks it seems like on the lower left corner, i'm guessing it's just decayed from the bridge as it looked pretty worn down when i arrived. The vegetation around looked fairly similar, all just distinct types of grasses, as well as the mentioned cattails and algae along the river. Bird's eye view map:

Still lots of trees and vegetation, and the pile of sticks in the lower left corner from last time is gone. I'm not sure why this picture came out at a lower quality, but this area (kinda like the corner of the bridge and Mac river meeting the land) looks a little more populated/bushy compared to last time.  And the leaves (on the left side), to me,  don't look as brightly colored as last time. Today I most definitely noticed lots of more animal activity, as I hear many different birds singing accompanied by the expected/common sound of cicadas.  On my way back home I was walking past a spot in the trail and spotted a toad! I was unable to get a pi...
