This morning, I recorded my first observation, which was a Gardenia found in my backyard. I'm actually very excited for this project and already thinking of places I need to visit! I'm planning on visiting Bedwell Bayfront Park next. I've never been there before, but I've driven by it countless times and I can imagine there are tons of unique organisms in the marshlands.

Unfortunately, I was not able to make it out to a park this weekend, but I did some research on future parks to visit. I went on the San Mateo County website and found two parks that are very close to me, Huddart Park and Wunderlich Park. I'm leaning towards Wunderlich because it is closer to me and has free parking. Time is my biggest issue with this project, so I am very excited to find a couple parks that are only 15 minutes away. Both parks seem to have similar landscapes of many redwood trees in the hills. According to the San Mateo County Parks website, Wunderlich Park seems to have many plants for observations. The website also lists many animals, but it may be hard to get close and take a picture of some smaller animals, such as squirrels and lizards. I'm hoping to visit this park either this week or the next week!
