The brook that flows through the center of my site divides the area into two areas with slightly different vegetation. One side of the water, there is a steep bank with primarily coniferous trees and a lack of leafy ground cover. Though this bank lacks leafy plants, the ground is covered in pine needles and many of the root systems are exposed. Additionally, a few patches of Moss grow primarily on this side of the brook. The lower bank contains a greater variety of deciduous trees and almost the entire ground is covered in small leafy plants. Both sides have a few dead or downed trees which made identifying some of the species particularly difficult. The foliage at this point still retained a mostly green color, with a few tints of yellow emerging in some of the trees. The most common woody plants at this site were: Eastern White Pine, Green Ash, Norway Maple (younger), Red Maple (younger), buckthorn, and several unidentified Ash trees.
