This document summarizes observations from a lake located in A.D. Barnes Park in Miami, Florida. The author describes the plants and animals seen around the lake, including tall green grass, some dying brown grass, squirrels, iguanas, white ibis, and a raccoon. The author predicts that over the next four months, more of the grass will turn brown due to lack of water at the lake's edges and that the white ibis population will increase. To check this prediction, the author would take before and after photos in the same locations and compare them.
