Moms, take it from me: do not buy your baby too many shoes when they're so tiny, because their feet grow every week.

Thanks for views, faves and comments! ;-)
Psyllid Bug (genus Acizzia)
These little ones are just 2-3 mm in length, if I hadn't seen it fly in and land on the leaf I would have missed it.

This spring, my friend had planted some forget-me-nots and had chosen this variety for its rich blue colour. I really hope that these flowers do well.
Thank you for your views and comments, much appreciated! Have a great day!
Have you ever had a tiny package arrive in the mail, and wondered who had sent it? This has happened to me several times in my lifetime - and it brings instant joy, and an overwhelming desire to thank the thoughtful person that sent it. This tiny spool laying atop a new tea towel, just arrived in my mailbox. This time I know who sent it as a note of encouragement was included. Wouldn't it be wonderful if everyone could encourage friends and family this way? It doesn't need to be anything extravagant - just something to say;
"I am thinking of you, and you are loved."
Virginia buttonweed blooms,
Southern tiny in the field.
Don't call it a weed!

❀ Botanical note:
"Diodia virginiana — commonly known as Virginia buttonweed — is a plant species in the bedstraw family (Rubiaceae), native to south-central and southeastern United States, found in swamps, wet meadows, marshes, coastal prairies, along streams and ponds, and in lawns and disturbed areas. It is a branching, sprawling plant, with small white star-shaped flowers (⅕ inch or ½ cm) of 4 petals apiece, that blooms in summer and fall."

📷 Photographer's note:
This is a close-up. The blossom — merely ½ centimeter wide — appears much larger in the image than it did in 'real' life.

A tiny striped bug on a Scotch thistle.
When I first saw this, I wasn't even sure it was a bug. Then it started to move. The camera can see better than my eyes!
Maybe it's the nymph of a stinkbug? I'm not an entomologist.
This was not meant to be a series, but as it turns out I posted a house wren which is a very small bird, then a tiny grasshopper, and now a teeny tiny frog. I am amazed that I was able to spot it. I noticed something land out of the corner of my eye. It took me a while to figure out that it was a frog. Only about 1/2 inch long as seen here from head to tail. I have seen small frogs before, but nothing like this.
I really wish I would have bumped up the ISO and the aperture, as I do not believe its eye is in focus. But all things considered I am thrilled to have got what I did. This was taken using a tripod. I was going to get a shot of a fungi when I cvame across this wee amphibian. I will be posting the Fungi tomorrow.
EDIT: I should add that this is a heavy crop to actual pixels without any resizing up or down.
EDIT 2: thanks to James R. Page for mentioning that this is a type of toad rather than a frog.
It is hard to beleive their is such perfection in such a tiny rose. This one is only a half inch wide!

At the end of the same dive with the flame lobster (previous post), we stopped in the shallows to search for grass squid.
Expectations were low. These squid are tiny - think the size of your pinky fingernail. They are floating in a soup of sargassum bits and pieces, so they are well camouflaged. And to top it all off, we are in shallow water (2-3m) with waves rolling through to slosh this slurry of stuff back and forth. Placing them in the viewfinder is hard but even if you can do that, you still need to get the camera's autofocus to lock on to the right thing. I have plenty of blurry pics and a bunch of sharp pics of seaweed fragments. But all you need is one to work!
Note, this was shot with ambient light (because we were so shallow). Without strobes, the shutter speed could be raised above 1/250th, which was definitely helpful.
Today I walked Ruby down to Sicklehatch Lane and back through Sapperton Wood. So 3 images for today fungi leaves and leaves.

I told you I'll find treasures, didn't I?
Overwhelmed by the number of drawers, I took a break and I rearranged the archives. Oh, well, not all of them :)
Here is Tiny, when she was only four months old :)
I beg your pardon, dear friends, I'll come later in the evening with a word for each of the lovely photos posted today.
Comostola leucomerata, within family Geometridae and sub-family Geometrinae; the emerald moths.
This was so small, just under 20 mm wingspan. A tiny emerald delight.

Found these tiny mushrooms growing on a patch of moss in the Bodcau WMA. The big ones about 15mm across the top.
Great new outfit from Addams and I am loving these long warm socks that can be worn with or without jeans. The socks also come in a long version that covers your shoes and a short version that stops at the ankles. So cute! The Hair Fair ended on the 7th and 3,4774,668L have been gathered to send to Wigs for Kids! A huge ....

Strasburg SW8 8618 was hustling a lone tagged boxcar eastward for exchange to Norfolk Southern in between the scheduled Strasburg passenger train behind N&W 475 and a photo charter behind N&W 611.
The freight must go through.
A tiny wind-scoured cave, that goes all the way through the sandstone bluff. It's very small, the opening at one end maybe a hard high, and less than a foot at the other. There are several places with formations like this around Mount Diablo.
Walnut Creek, Ca. Feb, 2022.
Only a tiny bit in focus for fun. Very tiny daisy like flowers still blooming at the park, less than 1/2" across, 1cm at most. Very tall and dangly and blowing in the wind. Same flowers as in next photo of a butterfly that shows how tiny these are.
The front two ships are standard designs, often seen around mining planets. Sometimes, valuable resources occur on planets with no water to support life. The first ship is a bulk water tanker, used to supply mining barracks. Next is a gas tanker, used to carry a variety of cargoes, such as helium or LNG.
Lastly is a tanker from a watery world, designed to proclaim its proud origins to everybody who sees it.

Sitting by a red door,
Nestled in the crook of a fallen tree,
He serenades passersby,
From his tiny-gnomial garden.

Yes, it is round three of tiny taters on the one24thscale page.
Obviously, the tater taster is not tiny. It is of course the taters that are tiny yet tasty. The tater taster is a regular "Fee fi fo fum, I smell the spuds of an Irishman", giant of a fellow.
We actually remembered to take a behind-the-scenes shot at the potato barn in Julesburg, Colorado. Since our last post, we have learned the place was once home to the Grubb Potato Company, with a fellow named Eugene Grubb at the helm. A relative gave us that information on the "I Love Colorado History" group's Facebook page.
There is an interesting bit of unplanned forced perspective going on in the image. The models look huge compared to the human!
"In the category, most weathered object in the image, the nominees are....the trucks....the railroad car....the potato barn...and the human..."
"And the award for most weathered goes to...."
