it is a fairly public place. i did see a good amount of flies that i had not seen in the past though. i could hear birds chirping but i could not see them or identify them. while i had no evidence, robins are a common bird so i included them in my drawing as a substitute. squirrels are also common and i did see a few running around in the trees. as always, i saw lots of dogs as this is a popular spot to walk your dog. however, i forgot to include the arrow between dogs and humans! the ferns were starting to come up so i included those as well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image
