3rd Nature Walk

For over half an hour from 4:35 pm to 5:15 pm, I walked around Edmand's park on the Newton campus. The weather was quite chilly but the sky was clear. Additionally, the fall atmosphere felt and looked so nice especially because I'm from Hawaii where there are no seasons. Through the walk, I ended up seeing various plant life such as goldenrods, pines, northern lady fern, tree-skirt moss, and Norway maple tree. Throughout my walk, I made sure my observations matched the four main groups of plants. The goldenrod and Norway maple are both angiosperms. The pines are gymnosperms. The Northern Lady Fern is of the polypodiopsida group. Finally, the tree skirt moss falls under bryophyta. Overall, this nature walk was a great experience and I can't wait to do another one.
