Hi, Im Chirs. This is my first microscope and I started with my own blood sample. I did not stain anything, just slide and cover wet. What i want to know is, does anything look strange? what are the little black and white specs going around like blackflies?? Is that normal?

what is this
Re: what is this
Probably just stuff moving due to Brownian motion, either it was on the slide before you put the sample on, on the coverslip, or if you added water it'd have been in there or from somewhere else. It'd be pretty hard to keep out absolutely everything from getting on your slide in your house.
