Discovery NotesThe temperature outside was 82° F when I collected the pond water. It had also just rained, so it was very humid. The water was pretty clear with some algae. I also noticed that there were a lot of bugs swimming on the surface of the water. One of the bugs happened to get into my water sample.
Naming NotesThere are four people in my immediate family, and our last name is Norman. Combining these two details produces Forman.
