Observing nature
Observing nature outside of Fiske
The place I am choosing to observe nature is the quad in front of fisk on campus. The first thing my eye was drawn to that I normally do not see when passing by fiske is the new white fencing they put up. Today it is about seventy degrees outside so there are also some people on the quad outside fiske. One thing that also caught my eye super fast was the sound of the chimes on the trees that we talked about when we had class outside one day. There are also a lot of flowers that I see starting to bloom since it has been nice outside lately. The flowers outside are usually something I normally would not right away because I am usually too busy looking at my phone when walking through campus. I decided to observe nature on the quad because this is a place I always say i'm going to go when its nice out and never end up getting to it. I would definitely suggest going to sit on the quad on a nice day if you need somewhere different to do homework. Other animals that I saw when sitting outside the fiske were squirrels and birds. One thing about sitting outside fiske that i noticed that kind of was a problem for doing homework is the noise of the road and cars going by. Another thing that really got my attention was a guy riding on a skateboard and letting his dog drag him by it. The dog ended up bolting after a squirrel he saw and proceeded to chase it up the tree.

I do not often do homework outside but this just looks so refreshing to do. I tend to get distracted a lot and being outside just adds to that list of distractions. This is something that I will give another try next year. Although watching a guy get pulled by his dog on a skateboard would absolutely get my attention. After taking this class I have found myself more drawn to nature and the beauty that surrounds us. I think seeing your picture and having knowledge about the environment around us makes me want to just relax outside with some iced tea and do homework.
