Making dry-mounts of pollen, use of a slide ringing table. I made a slide ringing table and make a dry mount with spruce pollen. Spruce trees make large amounts of pollen every few years. 2018 was such a year and much pollen collected on the ground, which I then put under the microscope. For making the slide, I used a concave slide and nail polish to glue the cover glass to the slide. The slide ringing table was made by gluing a CD on a fidget spinner.
Microscope used: Olympus CH40
Camera: Canon EOS 5D Mark II
