Our class recently went to the Mashpee Woodlands for a field trip. We
went on a hike through the woods. Something really cool we saw was
woodpecker holes in a tree. We saw a tea berry plant. If you rip the
leaves of a tea berry plant in half you will smell mint. We saw moss one
kind was bearded moss and reindeer moss. We even saw a couple of Ladies
Slippers. It was aswmazing to see a lady slipper! Also we saw Indian
pipe it was small and brown. Next also saw animal scat. Scat means
animal droppings. Then we saw a cople of animals some of the animals
were a bird, red back salamander,wolfspider and many more! Then we saw a
deer trail all the grass was stomped down on the trail. We saw a couple
of Mushrooms they had many colors one was blue another was tan and
brown. We also saw a Gypsy moth egg mass on a tree it was tan. We saw
many trees too a couple of them were White oak and a Pine tree and Pitch
pine. Finally we saw poison ivy you can tell if you see poison ivy
because it has three leaves and it's red. We hope you had a good time
learning about the Mashpee Woodlands! You should try and visit sometime!
