Being Curious (Continued)


So in my previous post I posted a picture of a little creature I found, wondering what in the world it was. Well with the help of Google and some of my own knowledge I found out what it was ! 

First I typed in "Pond creatures" into google, and clicked a link. On the website I ended up on there was a list of different creatures. Most of the names were familiar but then I came across a name I've never heard "Mayfly". So hoping this was the creature I was looking for I typed it into google images. The search showed these winged bugs, but my bug had no wings! But looking at it more carefully I realized that they have almost identical bodies, so I thought maybe what I found was a baby mayfly! So I typed in "Mayfly larva" and voila! There was my little friend 

Being Curious !

So yesterday our class went down to the pond to get water to sample to find protist, so I went down and dipped my beaker into the pond and not only got some protist, but I found this little guy

So I'd like to find out about this little creature !
