My plot of land is generally cooler than most of the other areas of land around my house because of the fact that it is surrounded on three sides by alder and maple trees. This little area of land that I've chosen gets the most sunlight in the late morning, around 10:00 to 11:00. The reason that I chose this particular area of land for my plot is because there is frequent deer activity there. Also, the grass and plants that grow here seem to thrive. An interesting fact about my plot is that you can easily see this area from my back deck because it is directly behind and below my house. Over the years, there have been many deer killed here. Like I said before, there is a lot of deer activity. If you look really close at the bigger picture below, you can see the deer trail that comes out of the woods right to the left of the wooden fence post.
This picture was taken the night of the next day. I was very pleased to find a picture of a deer on my camera. This picture clearly shows that there is definitely plant and animal life in my chosen plot of land.
