Moccasin Lake Park this was in back of a neighborhood over some railroad track kind of behind cliff Stephens Park. When we first entered the park there was a lot of Peecocks roaming around the park. Then we broke up  into a few groups 2 groups went to pick up an invasive species of weeds they were air potato and ceaser weeds. The group I was in had to make a trench in the bird pen so it wouldn't get flooded when it rained we also had to even the soil out to make it nice and even, that took 45 min. for all of us to do even though it didn't take as long as it did the other groups we also went to help them. After that we walked around the park in a nature trail and learned about pine trees and why they drop their pine needles this is to make the ground around the tree more acidic to help the tree grow. We also walked to the lake even though there was a tape up to keep us out we went anyways we saw tall grasses and cypress trees and pine tress again and bushes/shrubs. This was a cool field trip.
