What insects tell us about Hurricane Creek
With the assistance of a special viewer, you can see a magnified version of benthic macroinvertebrates found at Hurricane Creek. Can you tell the critter from the pebbles? At this year's Friends of Hurricane Creek Annual Cleanup, children conducted a stream survey along Hurricane Creek Park for local benthic macroinvertebrates. They learned how to identify microorganisms and read data about the stream's health by the presence or absence of specific species.
 Young and old alike explored the secret
underwater life of Hurricane Creek.
