macnmotion,
Is the water warm there are still cold?
We had winter here.

Don,
A lot of structure. What blows me away is bees/ wasps hives with the hexagon shapes.

Frank,

Like a Mimosa tree seed pod.
Mimosa has pointy ends though.

macnmotion,

Sheez !!!!!!!!!!!!

I won't.
I have next-door neighbors if they have a few dandelions or clover then they are ripping the whole yard up !

Michael G,
Great webpage !
Thanks !
Kinda makes me want to grow some Teasel !

I have a book on Weeds and it is in there.
Reminds me of Thistle. We can get thistles here in the yard.

fdupre,

I am dying to say it-
Great pics of that "kitten"

Hail Hail
The gangs all here !

Nacho Ben,
I would love to get that look you get with your microscope and camera!

Don,

Couple of "spinners" in there and I saw a rotifer at the end.

Looks good.

Luis,
What did I do- go to microscope movie heaven?
That should be on TV.

macnmotion,
Well that is off the charts of a catch.

dahyon,

Very nice.
Now I have to look up what a Teasel plant is.

Nacho Ben,

Well this is all fantastic !

microplan,

A very likeable fellow.

What magnification objective lens did you use?

Richard,

Welcome to the forum.

My main hobby is local town history. I am in the historical society. I do research and try to add to the knowledge. Definitely not giving up the microscope(s). I was just getting some cool stuff Fall of last year ! Other hobby is guitar playing. I was playing classical but jazz chords. I have an ele...

microplan,

Well you are being creative !
In the beginning of winter not many microbes in my sample waters, then less and less as winter goes on.
I do have a Stereoscope microscope I was looking a little at plant stuff but kinda doing other hobbies right now.

macnmotion,

They are the nastiest ones to come up near !

fdupre, I would guess the protruding "hairs" are Trichomes. I do not know too much about plants but when I viewed Cannabis buds I saw Trichomes and then learned most plants have them. I looked at some kind of small clover like plant (weed they would say) from my lawn and it had the "hairs." https://...

Don,

I'd spin around too with all those tiny critters maybe bacteria.
Then some close ups of a Rotifer.
Interesting footage but disturbed me in spots. (Too many bacteria will do that)
I think you are soon to get more microbes with all those little guys to eat.

I accidentally just "reported this" it said when I was trying to quote. (Note to Oliver)

I can relate. Getting involved. I start to bond with them after filming a while.

macnmotion,

Whew ! Rough for the little one.

macnmotion,

I personally have yet to be impressed by any videos I have seen where they say they used oil.
Sure looks okay, not saying it doesn't...
But nothing so far persuades me- Oh I have to go that route.

Don,
Having watched that-
I do not want to eat that cucumber.

hypancistrus,
