Downstream/macros

When we were in the downstream we were supposed to use a net and go to the creek so we could get different kind of animals and identified them. It was really interesting and we could see many species like aquatic sowbugs and blackfly larvae!!

We had a great time doing this activity!!!

Did anyone have the good fortune to find a cranefly larva? After years of finding them in our creeks, I've actually become quite fond of them, but only their mothers could really love them!

We DID find a few big cranefly larvae! We also found a huge dobsonfly larva... or hellgrammite. It was a productive morning in the creek! :)
