Discovering whether your waterway is polluted through bug identification.

 

The results of my day out in the pond with a net, camera, and Marion Huxley, a Freshwater Ecologist from BugUp now based with Sydney Water. We produced 30 macro images and made a booklet to help the community identify bugs and discover if their waterway is healthy or polluted.

BugUp book.

 

Dream it.

It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.

Bug detectives!

 

Observation.

The insects stay in the pond water when in the observation tray so they can be put back at the end of the session.

Now you see them everywhere!

Discussion points about different types of aquatic environments, and why some bugs may not have been in this water (cleanliness, etc).
