Notes 9/19- In first period we found no ants because of maybe the time and temperature. Notes 9/20 Fifth period, we didn't find any ants probably because it was raining and the water was keeping them in their home. Notes 9/20 Sixth period, we found no ants probably because we observed some of the ants' predators and it was wet and rainy.

NOTES 9/26 WE PUT TUNA IN THE ENTRANCE OF THE WOODS IN FRONT OF A TREE Notes 9/26 Fifth period we found 6 ants in the tuna in oil and we found 2 ant in the tuna in water. Also, we saw a bunch of ants around the trays so I know we are in a good spot. 9/26 sixth period: Many ants were found in the the container with oil and tuna. more than 20 were found in, around, or under the containers. not as many were found in the container with water and tuna.
