Nice work. You did an excellent job of describing some of the things you saw in the nature around you. I think you should consider adding some more details about more of the nature. You talk about a lot of things you saw, but you never go into detail. I think your readers should be able to feel what you feel and see what you saw. I also think that you might want to check over your grammer again. I found a few sentences that didn't make sense. Other than that, you did great and I think it is so cool that you got to live right by railroad tracks.
