My friends and I started our journey right outside of MAT and decided to walk towards the Redstone Lofts. We first walked by the basketball courts and than past the Patrick Gymnasium. All of us felt winter was clearly approaching Vermont: temperatures were decreasing, songbirds migrated for the season, and daylight was being lost each day. As we continued our walk around the track and back to MAT. We were able to make a couple of observations. We noticed the maples either had changes in foliage or the tree was completely bare in general. The only species to have leaves was the American Beech along with the coniferous trees that keep their needles for the season. The only animal we were able to spot was a gray squirrel hopping around the forested area. The day itself was particularly cloudy but a beautiful day overall.
