A very small part of the incredible Field of Light installation, Uluru Australia, by famed artist Bruce Munro. Hint: It only looks like a wagon wheel.

Smile on Saturday what's in a name. Jon is short for Jonathan which means gift from God. Don't most names mean that. It turns out it was the name of my fifth great grandfather, born in the Carolina colonies around 1750. I don't think my mom knew that. The signature is on an old pen sketch from when I was in art school long time ago. Smile it's Saturday ;-)

Towards a happy 2025!

Just a few more days for Spring...let's party! 💐

Thank you so much for the visit and your kind comments! 💕

And a juvenile...

They like crocus pollen also. :-)

Marbles

Some juveniles ad the edge of an old leaf.

Between Podura aquatica I found only one Sminthurides sp. When there is one present then there must be more of them.

This is a female, I have not found a male yet...

Here you can see a springtail with the beautiful name : Sminthurinus elegans.

And can you see the little gem on the little lump of sand?
