Observation Site 4

Observation Site 4:)

 This is a pictute of algae on a stick. I saw some green algae in the creek so i got a stick and scooped it up. It is slimy and ofcourse wet. While I was in that certain spot, I also saw geese nearby in the pond, and I could hear the sound of rushing water.

 This is a picture of an algae basin. As you can see there is nothing but brown in the water, and that is your algea. There are also photoplankton in the pond but their too tiny to see without a microscope.

This picture was taken on the pond. This is a picture of a HUGE clump of brown algae. I could see the geese, and fell the warm breeze on my face:) I love how Spring is in the air.

 This is anther picture of brown algae, and it too was also taken in the pond. There is SO much algae in the pond!

 When I was walking i walked by this Cattail and the cool thing about it is that it is "shedding". I felt the white stuff that looks like cotton and it feels like wool. Most all the Cattails were doing this.

This is a really neat picture, you can't see it very close but it is actually a Turtle Shell! I thought it was a curled up leaf but in fact it was a Turtle Shell. How cool is it to see! Mrs. Richardson found it and showed the class:)
