My Globular springtail today.

Paul Iddon

Just after the garden got a drenching, this little globular springtail walked across the top of the bird table. Managed to grab a couple. It's about 4mm long I'd say.


C&C as always allowed.

Bigger crop on No. 2 than the first Phil, but the original one looked OK even at full size too.
