Hello from NJ, USA

Hello all,
I'm a recently retired math teacher with a BA in Earth Science. I'm thrilled to get back into my science interests and recently purchased an digital scope like the one attached to examine and repair wristwatches. I started using it to examine biological specimens including water from my koi pond in my yard. WOW! I've got loads of little critters and flora that I'm trying to ID. And this prompted me to purchase and am waiting for a trinocular scope to hook up my DSLR. I am hoping some of you will be able to help me ID some of these flora and fauna. It's great to be a part of this forum.
