10/03/21 - Lake Siskiyou
This weekend we went up to Lake Siskiyou to celebrate my brother's 21st birthday. I was hoping to make a lot of observations of the different kinds of species up in this area but there weren't many out. When we got up to Lake Siskiyou we found out that almost the whole lake was emptied out so there weren't many animals around during the daytime. I was able to take a picture of a Chinese Mystery Snail I found while walking out towards where the middle of the lake used to be. I was able to take some photos of the dried-out lake and bear tracks and possibly elk tracks ( I'm not sure if elks reside in that area but the prints resembled that). It's interesting to see how the fires in California and climate change have affected the lowering water levels of lakes and how it is affecting species' environments in the area with them coming out at different times. Hopefully, the water levels will slowly start rising in lakes again.
