Today Bill Foster (the science monster) came in to talk about food preferences of our trout. This was a great lesson in aquatic entomology. These critters can be found in any stream all year long! Go check them out!![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSzH3AdHkqzLVnKGQDZe9HnVUEgMhPu-BCB44hMbtqnIwhAyjERHYE-s7eKyU8IfZ_Tth1fhxdGqt_EnF0XyErCYtxJTLcFzsntfPX21mbvKgwq9WOWfcewHe5rM3IvMqFf37s/s320/IMG_0195.JPG)
A Stonefly larva.
Mr. Giroux and Aaron M. (9th grader) came in to do fly tying demonstrations as well. After feeding the trout our live samples we tested our flies. It was amazing to see how instinctual the fish are when presented with new food that they've never seen before.
