Darwin--Keith L

I read The two short articles from Darwin's books and found them to be insightful into looking at the relationship between us and animals and how closely linked we are to them. The writing is a little dry but has lots of knowledge behind it.
When i Went to the park it was greener but I would rather take a walk around our campus than at the park. Our campus is much more green and vibrant.

Screaming Frogs--Tim

I went by the park last night expecting it to be the same lifeless park I visit every week, but to my surprise there was some activity. One young man was fishing near the middle parking area, not sure he was having any luck. Three other vehicles were parked in the furthest parking lot, however there were no signs of their owners. I suspect they were fishing the larger lake.
I was drawn to the woods by the sound of a loud splash. After trudging through the soggy brush, I stopped to see if I could spot the source of the splash. After standing quietly for several minutes I saw nothing. Suddenly I realized that I was so focused on what I could see that I was missing all the noise around me. The woods had come alive with the sound of frogs, and once I adjusted my focus to the sound, it seemed almost deafining. I couldn't see them but there must be thousands of frogs judging from the sound.
While I was at the park I continued with my earlier pledge to pick up trash. I collected a bag full and deposited it in the trash can before I left.

Slightly greener park---keith

When i went to the park i was hoping that it would be a bit greener for sake of me being able to say something nice about it. It was greener but it doesn't really make the park look like it belongs it will probably just end up looking like an extension to a back yard from the subdivision.

Death in the Open---keith

When i first saw the title to this story it grabbed my attention because i figured it would be dark. When i read it, it was actually rather deep and makes you think a little bit about natures recycling process and how death is natural. I really recommend this to the rest of my group it is a nice little read.

Goose Hunting--Chris

I read an article about the Canadian Goose possibly becoming a game bird again due to the population being so large. That made me want to go and see if the geese at the park were still around. Yep they were still there. They were in the back near the back perking lot. The geese should be safe there, as I found a sign posted at the end of the asphalt trail that goes back near to the lake that said no hunting. I thought the positioning of the sign kinda weird though, I thought it should of been posted at the beginning of the trail. I also thought it odd that the city would even need to post a no hunting sign in a park in the middle of a subdivision. Maybe they had a problem with someone squirrel or rabbit hunting in the woods back there. Well that's all for now, the park is starting to get more interesting now that spring is beginning. I can't wait till the trees get some leaves.

Keith--

So i went back to the park on Monday because it was nice out but the weather did not really change the dull look of the park. If i had to say one nice thing about the park it would be that the trees are nice and straight. I still like Klondike park way more and think that rabbit run park was just a solution to unusable land.
