Spring!
I went to Aquatic Park in west Berkeley and found a lot of examples of spring! Most of the plants I found showed signs of new growth, characteristic of Spring. These included Cattails, Himalayan Blackberries, and what I believe were Mustard plants. I also found a pond covered in a later of green algae, another example of Spring growth. By far the most exciting observation, however, was a Pocket Gopher. I found a gopher hole and, when my camera flashed, the gopher popped up to fill in the opening with dirt. The result was a rudimentary time-lapse series of photos showing the gopher filling in its hole. This is an example of Spring in that in shows a gopher in the process of digging new gopher runs.
