  KEY INFO! ↓ DATE & TIME: Wednesday, October 28, 5:20pm - 5:49pm WEATHER: ↓ - Climate Conditions: Sunny with wind at 6mph SSW. - Temperature: 69 degrees, feels like 70.  - Length of Day: 10hrs 28m. OBSERVATIONS:  I noticed several different things today, but overall I feel like it was decently similar to my last visit. However, this visit felt a lot more like fall. Compared to last time, there were SO many leaves on the ground, pond surface, and in the trees. Also, they were so vibrant in color which made this visit feel more dreamy than any other visit I have done in the past. A similarity to my last visit is that the fountain was off again. Last time, I thought it was just out of my luck that it was off. However with the weather changing I am wondering if it is off for the season? I also was thinking about how oxygen levels could be affected with the water fountain being off. Maybe it could be decreasing oxygen levels with the fountain not running, but it also...

KEY INFO! ↓ DATE & TIME: Sunday, October 11, 4:58pm - 5:34pm WEATHER: ↓ - Climate Conditions: Sunny with wind at 5mph. - Temperature:  69 degrees, feels like 73.  - Length of Day: 11hrs 15m OBSERVATIONS:  I noticed several different things today, but I think the reasons my observations were dramatically different from the previous 2 times is because the water fountain was off. This was the first time I have been to this location with the water fountain not running, therefore it was a different yet cool experience to observe. To begin, when I first arrived I could hear many more creature sounds. I heard lots of birds chirping, wind gusts rustling the plants together, and cars driving by on a nearby road. I had heard these sounds in previous visits, but they have never been as loud or as clear as they were today. The pond was more peaceful and calm, which makes me realize how big of a factor the fountain is to the overall location of the area. Another thing I notice...

KEY INFO! ↓ DATE & TIME: Thursday, September 24, 3:46 - 4:28pm WEATHER: ↓ - Climate Conditions: Sunny with wind at 9mph. - Temperature: 71 degrees, feels like 72.  - Length of Day: 12h 3m OBSERVATIONS:  I noticed many different things but the biggest change from the first time was that they cut down all of the weeds and plants that were in front of the pond. When I first arrived at the spot, I noticed a difference almost immediately. It looked so different because now I could get super close to the pond without having to walk through a bunch of plants first! Another change I noticed from the first time was that there was a lot less algae near the middle of the pond. When I went the first time there was so much of it, and now the water looked more clear and normal! Although there was still algae nearing the edges of the pond on the left side, the change was still noticeable.  - Less algae in the pond. - All weeds/little plants in front of the pond were cut. - Ripp...
