Field Journal 8: May 1 2020

The date is April 28th, 2020. The temperature outside is 40°F, the skies are clear, and the sun is out. I conducted my bird walk at 9 o’clock this morning. My bird walk lasted for about an hour and ended at 10:05 this morning. I conducted my bird walk beginning at Trinity campus. I walked on the sidewalk near the parking garage for the hospital, up through central campus towards the Aiken Center, and then down the road that leads to Centennial Woods. I ended my bird walk at the intersection of East Ave and Colchester Ave, essentially making a circle. The habitat I observed during my final bird walk was an extreme edge habitat. There were not many trees or bushes and there was a lot of human activity such as cars driving and people riding bikes. Most of the trees I saw birds in or around were either maple trees, oak trees, or pine trees.
