The weekly survey at the Outdoor Campus West was conducted by Jackie Stucky-Strom on April 25, 2025. Because the surveyor was alone and the weather was inclement, she decided to focus on the number of species in stead of numbers of individuals. The individuals’ number does not accurately reflect the number of individuals that were observed. 28 species were identified with a total of 121 individuals.
