Here's my last few from Sunday. A blue-tailed damselfly nymph...  
A shot of the microcaddis showing how thin the case is... 
And a water hog-louse...  
'Twas a really good session!

WOW !!
I'm fed up of always saying Wow about your photos - They're stunning and an excellent guide for ID.
I just posted a new thread asking if something was a Hog-Louse and if I'd seen your pic I wouldn't need to ask.
I never get tired of your photos! Thanks for sharing and educating.

Dave P. | Crackers Dave, the lot of them. I got some nice ones of the saucer bug I think, but I;ll have to wait till tommorow to check.
Still jealous of that 9 spined stickleback. |

Dave and UKwildlifeo it is great to see these fantastic shots folks! Being in to aquatic creatures myself it is a little disheartening to see these magnificent creatures so overlooked!!!
I am quite envious of your pictures they are fantastic! Any details of equipment used?
The great silver water beetle has to be the holy grail of finds too! Amazing!!
Oh, no Ranatra or Nepa???? | | | |
