Module 4: First iNaturalist Nature Walk

For my nature walk, I was walking through parks and courtyards a little south of central London. The weather was really nice, it was around mid 70's at sunset. I thought it would be very difficult to find fungi in the city, but there was actually quite a decent amount around. The most difficult part of the walk was determining whether my observations were actually an organism in the theme or if it was something we haven't studied yet. An interesting problem I kept running into was that many times when I thought I saw fungi from afar it was actually a form of litter like an apple core. I saw forms of fungi and lichen in the most interesting places. For example, I initially thought they would be in a grassy type environment, but most of my observations took place between bricks and next to trees on the sidewalk. Although it was difficult to find observations that fit the theme for this week's nature walk, I think it provided a very unique perspective to how wildlife can still shine through very urban areas.
