    Great start overall...give a little more info about things like where you're seeing things/how many/etc. Also see me about the sound map...this is not a sound map. Think about the ones we made in class.

Date and time: October 12, 5:46 P.M. Weather: cold, humid, very cloudy and rainy all day, with a slight breeze. Air temperature: 53 degrees Length of day: 11hrs and 13 minutes, Sunrise- 7:54 A.M. Sunset- 8:36 P.M. Observations: Almost every single tree is changing color and starting to lose it leaves!
