Pond Life
pond life pictureThis site might have been called, "Meditations With a Dip-Net." Its purpose is to meditate upon, as simply as possible, a number of common fresh water animals that constitute pond life.

It is hoped that the meditations presented in this website will awaken sufficient interest in pond life, and the many questions left unanswered will arouse enough curiosity in meditating to cause readers everywhere to conduct a few experiments with their own ponds.

One does not need to be a zoologist in order to make a study of pond life in a particular pond or stream. To begin with, all that is necessary is a dip-net, a few containers, a hand lens, and a sincere curiosity in pond life. Fortunately, on the Pacific Coast, almost all the animals mentioned in this website can be collected during all seasons of the year in one form or another.

As a hobby, the study of fresh-wate rpond life has few rivals. It offers plenty of fun, fresh air, sunshine, and exercise. Its possibilities are just beginning to be explored by amateur photographers.
