Mayfly Socks Don't Match

"May" Fly -- yeah, I know ... they always show up in September! Maybe delay was from laundry trouble with the socks -- left foot is red stripes, right foot is green stripes.

This guy is rather tiny. The photo's focus was at 1:1 macro. I cropped the photo down to 0.6 of width & height (before reducing size for posting & e-Mail) so what is shown within the borders below represents a view of roughly 7/8" x 5/8".

👍 Different species emerge all season. But some of these are abundant. I remember being in the woods at one point this June, and every leaf had lots of tiny mayflies. Two days later they were gone.
