low water flow means plenty of food for sandpipers and willets....there were a bunch of the former and a few of the latter
Algae, possibly gloeocapsa, at 600x. Found in a sample from an artificial pond in the park near 1st Street and Chesterfield in North Vancouver, BC, Canada.

Lake Erie algal blooms, August 2011, along the southeast Lake Erie shore of Pelee Island, Ontario, Canada, 5 miles north of the international line.
Toward Dunwich, there were several small pools that had formed a short distance from the beach.
There is lots of algae in these pools & the presence of it, makes for some very vivid colours.
I am growing algae. What I can't figure out is the perfectly straight line of demarkation between "algae" and "no algae" on the back of the tank. The algae just stops, six inches from the top. Not a gradual cessation, either. A perfectly straight and sudden boundary. I can't think of any explanation. If you have one, I'd love to hear it!
Ryan Davis and Sandia National Laboratories colleagues have developed a method to recycle critical and costly algae cultivation nutrients phosphate and nitrogen.

Algae Bloom off the Coast of Estonia on July 16th, 2002. Cyanobacteria can be found in almost every terrestrial and aquatic habitat. With the appropriate conditions these can bloom and be seen from space as blue-green patches that swirl following surface currents. Lines cutting across the image are the traces of ships. Factors that lead to these blooms include low winds, increasing temperatures, and nutrients such as phosphorus (often byproducts of fertilizer runoff along the rivers). These blooms can be toxic and are often monitored from air and space.

Lithophyllum carpophylli - really needs a common name. This grows on other brown macro algae and unlike most coralline algae it creates beautiful 3d structures.
This red algae comes back in our bird-bath time after time. I have tried all sorts of ways over the years to stop it reappearing. None have worked
Jerilyn Timlin serves as a principal investigator for the Algal Predator and Pathogen Signature Verification project. The project looks at exploring and exploiting the various detailed optical signatures that arise when the algae cultivation pond surface is monitored using Sandia’s optical spectroradiometric techniques. These techniques can differentiate algae growth and state of health and provide an early warning of the active presence of predators and pathogens in outdoor algal ponds.
In 2009, Jerilyn was presented by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) with a New Innovator Award to develop state-of-the-art imaging technology that can measure protein complex formation and protein networks.
