Come with me on soil safari. What I see, feel there, being out, digging for soil organsisms. There are also instructions and material to print in case you wanna follow discovering the beautiful life forms calling soils their home:
After the soil safari, once back in the laboratory, I am identifying the different soil organisms with the help of a magnifying glass (a very good one, looking almost like a microscope) and various identification keys.
This involves also taking some pictures of those beautiful organisms that I want to share here. Lets put on your green camouflage clothing, hop on the imaginary jeep and come with me to a little underground safari.
