Journal entry

For my journal entry I chose to sit outside at on a bench in a park in an area near my house. 

As I observed the ecosystem around me I snapped photos, and here they are!

These trees are angiosperms, they are producers.

This tree is a gymnosperm, it is a producer

These trees are also gymnosperms and producers.

This is a tree stump, and grass. 

This is a patch of moss on the ground.

This is a pine cone beside the bench. Pine cones come form gymnosperms.

If you look far in the background you can see a patch of ferns. Ferns are producers.

This is a robin, robins are part of the animal kingdom and are consumers

This is another pine cone on the ground beside my foot

The little circle in the grass is a Fungi fruiting body called a mushroom.  Mushrooms are decomposers.

This is a close up version of the mushroom. 

This is a picture of a spider. Spiders are part of the animal kingdom, and are arthropods.  They are consumers.
