Diario de svarley

Today was a very nice (weirdly warm for October) day. It was low 70's and blue sky. I walked around the nature area/pine tree reserve by the rec center then continued to the path that borders/is above the res path. The first plant I could find was from the Polypodiopsida group which was the fern. I also found many pine trees which are apart of the Gymnosperms group. Looking for flowering plants, I found more than I thought (and also some pretty ones) which are apart of the Angiosperms. Lastly, I had a bit of trouble finding something in the Bryophyta group but eventually found some moss on a rock.

I walked around the pine tree reserve next to the gym. The weather was very nice- a cool high 60's and sunny. There was a little wind but not a lot. I did not expect to see as many fungi as I did, especially different kinds of mushrooms! There were so many mushrooms that were either in clusters or by themselves. There was also significantly more growth around the trees and the roots/trunk. One that I thought looked really cool was the eastern cauliflower mushroom. I'll have to make sure to look out for fungi more often!

I walked for about 30 minutes in the green nature area next to the Rec Center. It was slightly chilly with some overcast clouds. The clouds became darker and appeared as if it was going to rain as my walk went on, although it never did. I have never walked in this area before and when I was walking I noticed how many different flowers and plants there were. There were also a variety of tree, although I did not take any pictures of the trees. I will have to make sure that I come back and walk in this area again.
