Volunteer Nature Journal Entry
Volunteer: Tori
Day and Time: October 9, 2021, Noon
Weather: Sunny, 80 degrees F
Observations:
A quarter-sized bee lands on flowers, looking for nectar.
A yellow and black oval bug crawls on a log.
A creature (can’t see it) makes noises, like a ring or a click.
Gray and white bird chirps.
A group of ants surrounds a plant.
A shiny green bug crawls on a leaf.
A yellow-striped bug crawls on another leaf.
A small red and black circular bug crawled on me.
A tiny black spider crawled on the paper.
A small, long fish swims in Blue Hole 3.
A red wasp flies around.
A swarm of gnats flies around a piece of wood.
Nature Take Away:
It sounds like Tori observed many pollinators. Gray and white birds that chirp around the park or more than likely mockingbirds. A small, long fish in Blue Hole 3, is more than likely our Kentucky black bass.
