My observation environment was filled with movement as a community today. Not only were the population of blackbirds out, but also ducks, and a few geese. The reason for their high activity, was probably because they were looking for food. The activity at this time, must have been due to the break from the abiotic factor, rain.The birds don't have to venture far from the pond because all its survival needs are in the environment including food, water, shelter, space, and a suitable climate. As i looked closer into the cattails, I could see new leaves sprouting. I predict in not too long they will start to grow flowers.
