Aleksandr's Observation Log

Eaton Canyon  is in the low 80's today, as the sky is clear blue, and there's an exceptional breeze as well. Date-October 29, 2012

11:22-I've arrived at the site, various Oak trees are to the side and center the crevice. Primarily dead leaves and bush form the ground, the sky is blue and clear. The weather is approximately 82F and there's a nice, light breeze.

11:26- Nothing changes with the environment except, crickets have begun chirping west of me.The ground is very steep, a strong breeze blows by and I observe a bird's nest with no birds in it.Temperature is the same.

11:32-Oaks on the hill, have a pile of dead brush slide, Sun shines more through the forested area and reveals a lot of spider webs kept spun from dead leaves to logs, and lots of fungi on log just under central oak. Several Flies appear.

11:37-Unidentifiable birds are chirping away in the trees, no change in temperature. Breeze has completely stopped. Several more webs are revealed from the sunlight.

11:42-There is a lone bird, jumping from tree to tree[ It was an ash-throated flycatcher], no change in temperature. There was a dog barking, and on central oak their appears to be some sort of bulge from the leaves. Flies appear in greater numbers unfortunately.

11:47- Temperature goes up to 84F, more birds and crickets chirping, little no change in scenery.

11:52-More Flies, only bird seen is a Belted Kingfisher that briefly flies from one oak to the next. No change in temperature and overall little to no change in scenery.
