Mimico Creek

No wildlife spotted. These results are from machine learning strips. Also see ‘Testers’ for phosphate result, and ‘Guardians‘ comparing results to regular test strips.

Murky water. No wildlife spotted. These results are from regular test strips, conductivity meter, and dissolved oxygen kit. Note alkalinity and total hardness differ from machine learning test strip results under ‘Test Strip Reading Study’.

Phosphates test using machine learning strip only. See ‘Guardians’ and ‘Test Strip Reading Study’ for other tests.

Windy! Kent did this test with the regular test strips. See ‘Test Strip research study” for comparative results using machine learning strips and other photos.

It was so windy today the water in the creek appeared to be moving upstream! Kent did this test at the shoreline. A squirrel was sitting still for a second on short stub of a tree branch at the top of the bank. These were the results of machine learning strips. Also see ‘Guardians’ post for results using regular test strips.

Blue jay. Dog walker. Cloudy water. Kent did this test on own. Location involves walking down creek bank. Slippery today due to heavy rain overnight. See ‘Guardians’ for comparative results using regular test strips compared to these machine learning ones.

Also see ‘Test strip reading study’ for comparative results and photos using machine learning test strips compared to these regular ones.

Great blue heron in a tree on east bank. And about 25 meters upstream, three swans (two young ones) hanging out in the creek.

Ventured further upstream on Mimico Creek, north of the Gardiner. Not much life under the bridge. Lots of concrete. Loads of graffiti.
