Some pretty neat fish from my study site at Bull Creek in SW Missouri. Hornyhead chub, Longear sunfish, and Ozark bass.

A little reunion last night of some folks recently and soon-to-be unleashed on the world from the @CNASatMSU Stream Ecology lab. Oh my. Look out, world!

Neat lichens in Nevada

[David Fleshman @DavidFleshman10]

First field week in Nevada with @GBInstitute was a success! Stream habitat data collection in East Fork Beaver Creek and North Fork Humboldt River

[deb finn @streambug]

It's official, y'all. Another stream ecology MS student @CNASatMSU is about to fly the coop.

Next Friday, @DavidFleshman10 will defend his thesis research on #hyporheic invertebrates in space and time.
Lots of cool stuff from the one and only Bull Creek!

DM for Zoom link.

So proud of @DavidFleshman10 who just gave his first conference talk ever! Missouri Natural Resources Conference. Super cool spatial and temporal patterns of #hyporheic bugz in Bull Creek.

@lmhatch6 Yoga sounds too hostile for me

Final day collecting #hyporheic invertebrate samples at Bull Creek! You can tell it hasn't been raining a lot lately.

@streambug @CNASatMSU Rock drilling professionals

[deb finn @streambug]

MO State Stream Ecology Lab got some solid fieldwork in #Ozarks intermittent streams this weekend before the rains returned.
Lots of emergence traps.
Bugz sampling from small remaining pools.
New hammer drill to secure loggers to bedrock!

@toadparade Oh hell yeah. I saw how many people liked this and figured you might be tired of responding so I held off on liking it 😂 Looks delicious

[David Fleshman @DavidFleshman10]

@AquaticLife13 Nice one from Bull Creek!

[David Fleshman @DavidFleshman10]

@AquaticLife13 Not sure! Maybe a slender? It's only about 3cm long

[David Fleshman @DavidFleshman10]

Crazy find in a #hyporheic sample. Tiny madtom pumped up from a well installed ~50cm below the stream bed!

[Adrian Smith @DrAdrianSmith]

This might *look* like a stonefly, but it’s a dragon. 100%, a flying dragon

[David Fleshman @DavidFleshman10]

@lmhatch6 Should I be worried 😂

[David Fleshman @DavidFleshman10]

Cool find by @odonatadragon in an intermittent tributary of Bull Creek. Cave salamander (Eurycea lucifuga)

[deb finn @streambug]

First Aquatic Entomology class field trip in this strange year @CNASatMSU . So many cool bugz to brighten our semester!
