I came to the Marsh area site late for my last observation in hope of seeing different animals. I didn't see much difference except for the loud piercing sound of a group of crickets in the back away from the pond. I was exited because I never herd these bugs at my site before. The birds stayed the whole time I was there, they are probably used to me by now. A few yellow headed blackbirds were mangling around but most of the bird population was blackbirds. Some ducks were cruising around in the algae free, pond happily. The geese were back, about a dozen surrounded the area. There were puddles in the tall grasses from all the rain we have been having. A black house cat enjoyed the water that the puddles had to offer. The willows leaves bloomed bright green with life over on the far side of the pond. The cattail heads have shown no sign of improvement, I predict that they are bursted for the season. The whole marsh beamed with noise from all the organisms toward the end of the observation, making the site even more breathtaking.
