River Deele.
An experimental evening, preparing for the imminent onslaught of insects. Cloudy with drizzle all day. |
Two mosses from the bridge - Tortula muralis (but you knew that) on the left, and Grimmia pulvinata , showing the new capsules just emerging.
|
Two shots of a tiny gnat on a Daffodil. It's about 5mm from nose to tail...you can just make out the feathered antennae.
|
This was an extremely attractive, but highly agitated, little gnat....Very pretty with the striped knees and psychedelic tips to the wings. |
