At this point there had been a mix of hot days, and the creek was reasonably high and clean, without visible algae. The sample was taken from a slow and very shallow portion where many tiny fish had collected. This was mostly fine sediment with a few fragments of leaves and moss, topped off from the main stream.
The main living things were diatoms, mostly small rhomboid or lunate kinds followed by longer rods and Amphora. With these were some Closterium and small flagellates. Throughout the sample there were also a considerable diversity of Loxodes, flat spirotrichs, and ploimids, though no single type was very abundant.
