On the Jack Pine Forest Ecosystem

Organism


My organism is the endangered Kirtland's warbler, it one of
the rarest members of the wood warbler (Parulidae) family.
They live for about two years, and they eat insects and ripe
blue berries. They migrate to the Bahamas, and stay there
during fall and winter seasons.
Definition: Any living thing.
Population


The Kirtland’s warbler lives in Michigan, a little of Wisconsin,
Ohio, and a little of Ontario. They are rare because they have
very specific habitat conditions. They are ground nesters, so
they need dry land, a large are of Jack Pine forest, with shrubs,
and tall grasses. They like to nest in grayling sand, because it
rarely floods. The population of Kirtland’s warblers in
Michigan varies from record lows of 167 in 1974 and 1987,
then the number increased to a record high of 1,828 in 2011.
Scientists believe that for every male there is a female, there
are many Kirtland’s warblers in Michigan.

the same area at the same time.
Community


There are many different types of organisms in the Jack Pine
ecosystem. Some of them plants are, the Jack Pine, the
Northern Pin Oak, and Blueberries. Some of the common
animals are, the Kirtland’s warbler, the Badger, the Eastern
Bluebird, and the Green snake. One popular insect in the Jack
Pine Ecosystem is the Black Carpenter ant.

and interact in an enviornment. All the living and non-living
factors in an ecosystem.
Ecosystem


The Kirtland’s warbler only nests in the Jack Pine ecosystem,
they nest under the Jack Pine trees. Many other animals live
there too. The biotic factors (animals and plants) interact with
the abiotic factors ( rocks, water, soil, sunlight, sky). An
example of that is the Black Carpenter ants living in the
ground, the trees in the ground, and any type of fish that could
be in a stream in the Jack Pine Ecosystem.
Definition: All the living and non-living things in an
ecosystem. They are the non-living components of an
ecosystem. The abiotic factors are, rocks, wind, water, soil,
temprature, and sunlight.
