Macroinvertebrate Survey 2008
Thank you to all our volunteers once again!
And a special thank you Ingrid for your continued dedication and enthusiasm.

Project coordinator Ingrid Davis surveys the river for "riffles" and a good location to take samples.

Volunteers attend presentation on how to collect and identify macro invertebrates at the "Barn".
|

An example of isolating individual specimens into an observation tray.
|

Out into the field. Volunteers search for a good spot to place net and collect debris.
|

Volunteers search the debris for specimens to place in the observation trays.
|

The search continues...
|

... until all macroinvertebrates have been found.
|

The last step in the field work, identifying each specimen in the observation tray and marking the field data sheet. |
A great day was had by all. Questions? Feel free to contact Ingrid Davis, PRWC’s volunteer Macro coordinator at ingriddvs@yahoo.com
