Homework #5

The five observations I had are two Brewer's Blackbirds, a California Poppy, and two unidentified species, which I believe to be a millipede and a slug. The reason I have two brewer's Blackbirds is because one is male and one is female -- I observed these in San Francisco. One definite spring observation is the California Poppy I observed. In the image, it is flowering and that is a typical characteristic of the Spring season. The two observations from today I had are the slug, which I had observed before and saw about five on my hike today, and the millipede, which I hadn't seen before. The hike was great since it stayed light, even though I was out till 6:15pm. I'm looking forward to more night springtime hikes.
