Observation #5
Today I was observing the aspen tree and was happy to say that leave are starting to grow on it. The willows are also starting to grow. I think this will be good, because the aspen tree and willows are all primary producers or autotrophs. This means that the heterotrophs in my area will have more food. An example of a heterotroph is a moose or squirrel, essentially any herbivores. Then after the moose eats the plant any other carnivore can eat the moose, which will hopefully help the entire environment and ecosystem. Today I also saw two squirrels playing in the high branches of a pine tree. I also finally saw robins, and although I did not see their nest I think they have already a laid their eggs.
