Geo-171-2014 Homework #2

I went out Friday and Saturday (1/31/14, 2/1/14) to Tilden Park. The fist iconic taxa, one that is everywhere, that I recorded is an example of a plant. I chose to record one that seemed out of place, there were a few cherry trees blooming along the trail.
On one of the cherries I photographed a honey bee as an example of an insect. I found another insect behind the bark of a rotting log, there was a colony of ants.

The most exciting thing that I found was the California newt. It was crossing the trail on Saturday. Newts are amphibians in the salamander family.
