Black+Nook's+Pond+6B+bdshaw

=Hello my name is bdshaw. I attend the [|Amigos School] in Cambridge MA. My Science class is working on a project where we have to write about an environment. At Amigos we go on many different field trip and visit many different ecosystems. The ecosystem I chose to write about is called Black Nock pond in Cambridge. As a group both sixth grade classes walked to Harvard square. We boarded the Public Transportation till we reached our destination in North Cambridge.= == = = =Black Nock pond is close to a bigger pond called Fresh Pond. I noticed a big building that is used as a retirement place for the Elderly. When I got to Black's Nook Pond I remember the sky being filled with clouds. It was 63 degrees outside.= = = =Three producers I saw were acorns lying on the ground. I saw grass that was beginning to die. I also saw leaves that were full of fall colors like Orange, Red and some were still green. Three consumers that I found were, birds flying around, squirrels running around and crows standing in the trees. The three decomposers I found were moldy leaves, logs and wild mushrooms growing around trees and the ground. Check out my food web.= = = =I learned that there are certain kinds of creatures that live in the water determine how clean or dirty the water can become. For example if you find a bloodworm living in the water that determines that the water is polluted. If you find creatures like water snips fly larvae that determines that the water is clean.see my Food Pyramid.= ==
