During our Citizen Science course we went outside to search for mosquito larvae. At the pond near the CEC building we found a bunch of air potato hanging from trees and crawling on the ground. I think it is interesting that there was a seed of one of these plants hanging in the air. It was very sunny out, and the temperature was in the high 80s.

At the Eckerd Community Farm I moved a box on the ground and found a bunch of these millipedes at the top of the soil. They were a little slow moving, but once I picked one up it moved more quickly. The weather sunny and the temperature was in the 80s.

While cleaning up around the Eckerd Farm I found this little lizard running around in one of our crates. I didn't try to catch it, but it did try its best to stay away from me. It was sunny, humid, and temperatures were in the 80s.

This bird was in a relatively large group with other white ibis and they were across from the bookstore in the little grassy courtyard area. They appeared to be peacefully eating food from the ground. They didn’t mind my presence at first, but the closer I got, they began to fly away. I took this observation around quarter past six, and it was muggy, quite hot (86 degrees Fahrenheit), with little breeze.
