While walking and spending some time in my hometown, Springdale NL, I took a sample of running water from a small stream, where, upon observing the sample with the foldscope, I found, among other things mentioned in other recent posts, what appears to be a paramecium, and a smaller, unidentified organism. If you have any guesses toward what it might be, please comment below!

Observations were made at 140x magnification with additional digital zoom.
