Macroinvertibrates Part1: Stream Sampling!

Join Rob and Andrea at the Vielmetti-Peters Reserve to learn about macroinvertibrates - what they are, how to find them, and what they tell you about water quality! This short video will walk you through the use of a kick-net and the basics of stream sampling for macroinvertibrate identification. Watch the video above, download the key, and then try it on your own! If you think this is fun, sign up as a volunteer on the UPLC website for 'macros sampling' next spring! Don't forget to share pictures and stories of your Nature Adventures with us when you're back! Tag us on social media and use the hashtag #LandTodayLifeTomorrow for a chance to be featured.  --- We know that education is a major challenge for a lot of folks right now, so we created video and webinar series to give folks some extra tools, particularly those needing a little creative assistance in getting kids (and learners of all ages!) outdoors. The focus of this video series is on getting to know the nature around you: short videos with a follow up activity to do out in nature. If you know of someone who could use these resources - teachers, parents, or other caregivers - please pass this email on and let them know there's more coming. The Preserves featured in this video series are just a small portion of the 6,264 acres in Michigan's Upper Peninsula that are permanently protected by the UP Land Conservancy. The purified air, naturally filtered water, and awesome trails provided by these nature preserves and conservation easements are only possible with your support. If you, like me, have found yourself relying on nature, the outdoors, and virtual activities like these more than ever before during these strange times, please donate now at uplandconservancy.org/donate
