Nature Walk 9/24- Nice Neighborhoods

Today I went on a walk around the neighborhoods behind upper campus. It was another lovely day outside. It was a little warm, but partly cloudy and with so many tall trees it was a super nice temperature in the shade. Though there are a lot of organisms that aren't wild, I was able to look closely at my surroundings and find a couple cool naturally occurring organisms living all around the more developed area. It was very relaxing to be outside on such a beautiful day, and I would definitely recommend going around these neighborhoods as a challenge- it's definitely a little harder to find non-captive organisms, but it was a fun way to appreciate all of the organisms we may pass by each day without even knowing.
