My Feild Trip to Big Darby Creek

We went to Big Darby Creek and counted lots of bugs. We took kick nets into the river
and two people stuck the two poles of the net into the rocks so the net was slanted vertically in the water.
Then the other two people did the Darby Shuffle to lift up the rocks and mud to catch all of the critters.
Once we were satisfied, we took the net back to the shore and picked out as many of the macroinvertebrates
as we could. We found larvae, crayfish, water pennies, and lots more. We also tested the water by using
different chemical tests to measure things like the dissolved oxygen, nitrogen levels, PH, and the hardness of
the water.
