Field Notes

I am happy because...well i'm not. we didn't find our species. but i'm happy that the wind is not blowing hard and its easy to paddle today. Problems...We never found it. I see, hear, smell...i see flowing water lots of trees and lily pads. i hear flowing water and cars. i smell desperation.

Supporting Evidence

There was no flower floating around with the lily pads that we found.

The lily pads that were found, either had a spatterdock flower around them, or the lily pads had not been grouped big with their stems at the top of the water.

The lily pads that we did find, the stem was to thin to be the Yellow floating heart lily pads.
