Sarah on field trip

Hi,

I went to Dogfish creek today. I learned that clean water is good for the macro invertebraes. I learned that there are parts in the water that are fast moving and parts that are slow.

Here I am testing the pH of the water. In order for the macro invertebraes to stay healthy, the water has to be between 7-8 pH. Ours was between 7 and 8.

I barely got muddy this time...good thing I had boots on!

love, Sarah

This is very interesting. But where is the photo of the macro invertibrate?

Love the hair- but it doesn't look very short to me? I thought it was going to be REALLY short from your description.
