Welcome to the Watershed Discovery Center at Tip of the Mitt Watershed Council in northern Michigan! This livestream features our educational macroinvertebrate stream tank, a living display of aquatic insects and other critters that help us understand water quality in Northern Michigan streams.
Watch in real-time as stoneflies, mayflies, caddisflies, minnows, crayfish, and other fascinating macroinvertebrates move through a specially designed tank that mimics a natural stream environment. These tiny organisms are crucial bioindicators, offering insight into the health of our local watersheds.
Whether you’re a student, educator, nature lover, or just curious about freshwater ecosystems, this stream offers a close-up view of the hidden life beneath the water’s surface.
