This National Public Health Week: Document the creek critters that protect watery ecosystems!
Healthy waterways start with the smallest inhabitants—macroinvertebrates! These tiny creek critters, like mayflies and dragonfly larvae, serve as vital indicators of water quality. By participating in the Creek Critters project, you’ll learn how to identify these organisms and assess the health of local streams. Your findings contribute to conservation efforts, helping to protect freshwater ecosystems. Get involved and make a difference in water quality monitoring!
Your participation during April will count toward One Million Acts of Science, helping track water quality while connecting with nature.
