Stream Water and Lead Sampling

There was a lot of rain since yesterday and some thunder. I however ended up not noticing much difference in flow rate and amount of water in the stream. I also am thinking that my low macroinvertebrate count yesterday could be related to the high pH. I also found a mouse(?) by the stream. Gathering today's samples was fairly fast and easy, and nothing I found in the daily collection seems to be very unusual. I also was surprised by the low E. coli count.
