I chose a spot inside Centennial Woods that has a large amount of overstory trees but not many understory trees. The primary type of tree in the area are Eastern White Pines, although there are many more. The other types are as follows:

• American Beech
• Yellow Birch
• Northern Red Oak
• Eastern Hemlock
• Norway Maple
• Common Buckthorn

Its worthy to note that the last three tree types listed are all concentrated near the stream at the edge of my area. Because of the high concentration of eastern White Pines, there is a large amount of pine needles covering the ground.

The place I chose also has ferns everywhere. There were more when I first visited but I suspect that is because it is now becoming colder. There are also many fallen trees that are now decomposing. Many of them are covered in mosses and mushrooms. There are many different types of mushrooms in the area as well.
