Hello.
Winter is approaching.
It is getting colder and more difficult to obtain preparations.
So I set up my own microorganism culture in a plastic bucket.
A little dry grass from the autumn mowing of the garden with the addition of cold boiled water.
After two days, I took a few drops and put it under the lens.
There were tons of fast-moving microorganisms, but I found one that was calm.
During those few minutes of observation I even liked him, but in the end he escaped me.
I know I'll never meet him again.
Pity.

Nice video. Your Vorticella or Pseudovorticella (as the case may be) abandoned its stalk, (mobile form is called telotroch)
most likely due to the stressful situation (can't blame it) and went looking for greener pastures.
Not a happy ending unless you returned the sample to the sample jar.

You did well with that image. Its taken a couple of years for me to learn how to do that, and even longer to make decent videos. Being greedy and wanting to get down in there, I found I needed permanent slides. This technique seems to be beyond the limits of my skill and patience. Ordering prepared slides was easier for me. They can be expensive but with them I can go to 100x oil, dark field and phase contrast and study them for hours.
You did well.
