header:
Time & Date: 19/12/5; 13:50
Duration: 30 mins
Location: Monarch Wood Park, ON
Weather: little snow, Cloudy, 0 degrees, windy, snow-covered
Habitat: Forest.

Narrative:
This ecosystem is dominated by forest, and it also has a creek that supplies water to the ecosystem. Similar to other ecosystems, this ecosystem also has many squirrels. This ecosystem is very similar to Anndale Park, but there are lesser conifer trees. There are only a few species in the ecosystem based on birds' sound. It is hard to hear any kind of birds sound, the only sound I found is Crows which eat most things they found, they live in this area all year long. Also, the tracks showed there are Meadow Vole, those small mammals eat seeds and fruit, they usually come out at night which makes them hard to observe. Since the ecosystems are similar, they may want to reduce the time spent outside to aware of predators such as Hawk. This ecosystem is very quiet and there are influencing of humans. People live in nearby neighborhoods walk their dogs here and may have a negative effect on the ecosystem. Also, this ecosystem is on a mountain unlike other ecosystems on the plain, so the flow of water may influence the nutrient on different attitudes (carry nutrient to lower attitude). The grasses in this ecosystem are also covered by snow and hard to ID.
