Hike to look for Food

Well, we know that Spencer school has a lot of shelter, and when we went on our walk we saw some berries. We know that animals eat berries, but we weren't sure if this is a type they would eat. We added this question to our "Wonder" column in our chart.
Here a the first picture of our discovery of berries several weeks ago:

Notice all the berries in the background as well. We went back today to see if the berries would still be plentiful enough to sustain the animals all winter.

Here is what we found:

They are gone!!

We found that some trees along the path had berries still though:

We predict, when we return, they will be gone. Therefore, our answer is that there is not enough food around Spencer School for the animals to survive.

We then looked for water:

A frozen pond in the outdoor classroom!

More questions arise-- How can they get the water when it is frozen??

We have some research to do!
