What is your microscopy history? What are your interests? What equipment do you use?

Hi all, I'm, to use an old term, a pigeon fancier. I have for the past 15 years tried to familiarize myself with use and operation of a Amscope microscope given to me as a gift by my wife. Over the years I have become fairly proficient in identifying some of the nasties that can infect pigeons (such worms, parasites and yeast),and thus recommend the proper medicine to treat them with, through doing fecal and crop wash exams on them.

I joined because I have a sick bird and during his fecal exam I saw about a dozen example of something I have never seen before. I will post a photo and info in the Identification Help area.
