Float on

I can't help but think back to the 70s and The Floaters song 'Float On'.

 

An interesting aquatic creature to observe - by utilising the hairs on their legs that repel water and capture air, the tiny water striders appear to stand on the water's surface... the captured air allows them to float and move easily.

 

And how fast they zip about at times.
