    109 Don Minaker Dr by Victoria Torkos

    There was still large areas of ice in the pond but there was an accessible area for me to collect the sample. The water level has gone down since the last time to what I normally see it at. No waterfowl at this time.

    The ice has melted and now I can test but it rained recently and with the ice melting, the water level is super high! It overtook the area where I normally stand to collect my samples. I went to the nearest accessible point and gathered a sample. It is not a good representation of the entire pong because it is runoff thus the alkalinity and pH levels are off.

    Kitsucksus Creek by Sarah Bennett

    I went out with a friend. Doing a photo journalism piece for Oceanwise. Great site, happy with my findings. Many salmon and other things can live and thrive in this creek

    The pond was very dead this morning. I usually see many ducks, the lone goose and some other action but today the water was still. I saw 2 male ducks at the edge of the water but that was it.

    Spotted a type of waterfowl i have never seen here. There was a group of 4. it seemed like there was 2 male and 2 female. My best guess after some research is that they are Hooded Mergansers. Very cool!
