Flickr now allows you to see more than just 'activity' on your images with a blog style stats package.
I may never read those emails, but when did this arrive?
The interactions in this photo is a cactus wren making a nest in its environment. Since cactus wrens are desert birds usually living around a lot of cacti, they make their nest out of what ever they can whether it be on a cactus, in a cactus, in a palo verde, or else where in the desert.
except for the change in colour and a bit of a blend (which i dont have enough patience for, because i can still see that faint line in the middle) here and there, these pictures have not been photoshopped. they're just the result of this cool feature on my new camera that we were playing around with last night (well this morning, rather!!!!)
I REALLY NEED TO GET A TRIPOD!!!!!
This is a beetle and ant possibly feeding on a oxeye daisy.
Question: I have been wondering why my location is mostly grass, shrubs and a few small trees if it has been protected by Oakland County Parks and undisturbed for so long? Shouldn't it be more a forest by now because of succession?
My preschoolers need much help and guidance, and I love the kiddos and am happy to interact with them.
the four crafty crows planned to steal the fish from the osprey so one would try to brush past him, as the other would watch and the the third and forth tried to distract him by making a racket...these crows are very aggressive and yesterday they tried to attack the bald eagle, but he didn't care... he just sat there majestically...please also see the related picture below...

This trophic interaction is between a squirrel and I believe it was either an acorn or walnut. Acorns and walnuts come from trees, which are primary producers, making the squirrel a primary consumer.
I think the most influential species in my ecosystem would be the trees. I believe the most abundant tree at my site is either the ash or oak. These trees not only create habitat for birds and squirrels, when they fall from either weather or disease, they create homes for insects and other animals on the ground. In addition, their roots help with nutrient flow and erosion. The canopy of the trees also provides shade and controls the amount of sunlight given to plants on the ground. If you were to remove the trees, you would remove the habitat for many species. In addition, there would be more erosion along the riverbank. If you were to replace it with an invasive species, I do not see a major problem. Unless the invasive species consumes more nutrients and causes other species to be wiped out, it would be welcomed. In fact, there was a problem with emerald ash borer in my site, so the ash trees may need to be replaced.
Three organisms I took for the first capstone are mallard ducks, a squirrel, and a mushroom that I believe is a stumpy. According to the article, the mushroom, being a decomposer, is food-limited. Since they degrade organic debris, they are limited by the amount of debris available to decompose. For the ducks and squirrel they are limited by predation, the weather, and “the level below that set by its resources.”
