I've always like these little guys :D And you always do such a great job of capturing them :thumbup:

I have yet to find any type of Springtails around these parts. I wonder if we even have them :|

What a useful fellow to have about cleaning up all the algae. Good camo for a fence and super shots as expected.

Nice shots of a springtail. This is the first time I've seen the detail on what appears to be compound eyes near the antennae. That's a lot of extension there. :thumbup:

What size pooper scooper would you use to clean up the mess?
