Remember when I was telling you what my dad taught me? Well don't you worry, my dad taught me more than just the word, I understand the biome I live in! Temperate Forest Biome, which some people call Deciduous Forests Biome is one of the world's major ecological communities, classified by climate and native plants and animals. In my biome, there are 4 seasons. Spring time brings new life to the trees and plants, warm temperatures, and rain which help everything to grow. Summer is hot, and everything is green. Fall is cool. The trees are beginning to change colors such as red, yellow and bright orange. Winter months are extremely cold and all the trees lose their leaves. The average temperature around here as well as in other Temperate Forest Biomes is around 50 degrees farenheit and we normally have anywhere from 30 to 60 inches of rainfall a year. We have many layers of plant life. There are small plants such as shrubs, moss, ferns, lichens which grow quietly underneath the tall trees. The animals in our biome come in all shapes and sizes from a variety of insects to birds and mammals, the numbers of species are almost endless. |
