For my third nature walk, I walked around the Pine Tree Reservation. It was a clear day, with little to no clouds, and the temperature was cool. There was not much wind outside. Most of the leaves on deciduous trees were yellow and red, and not many remained on branches. There were groups of small ferns mostly of the outskirts of the reservation. I expected to see more moss on this walk, but I only observed moss at the base of the occasional pine tree. There were very few angiosperms as well, outside of asters, which is not surprising considering this is a pine tree reservation.
