I didn't have a lot of time to go on this nature walk so I hoped that I would be able to identify wild species nearby where I had to go. The weather was warm for fall and it was at times very sunny and cloudy at other times. I found a chipmunk and a squirrel, then saw a green insect I couldn't identify on a friend's bag. I also saw some type of dragonfly, although I couldn't make out the color. I also saw a few turkeys, which I was hoping to find because I've seen them often in that area. I realized that though our campus is very green and has a lot of plants and trees, the biodiversity is not very high because almost everything is cultivated. Aside from mammal and bird species that have adapted to living near humans, most of the animal life that can be found here comprises of insects. There were many bees and butterflies that I saw but was not able to get a picture of.
