Benthic macroinvertebrates (the bugs that we are interested in because they are widespread & both sensitive & tolerant, depending on the bug) are collected using kicknets! These are wide, rectangular nets that are deployed into watersheds. Cool beans!

Lots of interest during @MayflyShauna's presentation about the involvement of farmers as part of the process to determine beneficial management practices, especially now with #AGLivingLabs.

#labgirlsrock #EcoEvoEnto2019 great to see these former students rocking the science world!

Our finished Hexagenia mayfly stuffie! We based this mayfly on the one from our logo design (which is our Twitter profile header). @EmHasMayflyCAD designed the original logo, and @MayflyCatherine did this needlepoint mayfly.

The lovely @MayflyShauna was also busy chatting with an #EcoEvoEnto2019 attendee when we swung by! Her poster presentation was all about her work assessing present and historical agricultural best management practices (using aquatic indicators) on PEI.

Accidentally wore matching outfits with @lab_bug for the poster presentation today! #geekgarb #EcoEvoEnto2019 @CSEE_SCEE

This past week @EmHasMayflyCAD, @MayflyShauna, & @BriannaLevenst1 hit the road to PEI to check out potential sites for an upcoming project & sent photos us for #FieldworkFridays -- including a snapshot of a quick & VERY necessary stop for @COWSICECREAM! 🐄🍦 #SciTwitter #Biology

More exciting news: @mayfly_gal, Julia Howland, will be defending her master's thesis next week on Tuesday, August 13th at 10am. We were feeling nostalgic, hence our earlier tweet!

#MayflyMonday is BACK!

Mayflies belong the order of insect known as ephemeroptera. The name is drawn from the Greek word "ephēmeros," meaning "lasting only a day," which is a nod to the short adult lifespan of mayflies. The modern word "ephemeral" is from the same root. #Biology

Our first entry in #TheSecretLifeOfScience is from @MayflyShauna.

"My favourite color is burgundy. The best example I can give is the color of a Red trillium (Trillium erectum), which are abundant in the spring!"
