Nature walk at Holt Hill in Andover Ma: Plants

I went on a nature walk at Holt Hill. This hiking trail is owned by the Trustees of the Reservation, and is beautiful. The trail I took brought me to the top of the hill which overlooks the Boston Skyline. When I went on this walk, it was 68 degrees and sunny, a perfect fall day. There was a lot of plant variety, and I tried to capture that in my observations. Most of the plants I observed were low-hanging, and I found more variety within the shrubs at Holt Hill than the trees. Overall, it was a beautiful walk, and a great way to explore some of the plant variety in Northern Massachusetts.
