I can't identify these little guys, but he's very much like the Entomobrya on this page.

I'm having to moderate all comments because Blogger seems to have a problem notifying me. Sorry about that. I will review them several times daily, though, until this issue is fixed.
Also, I have word verification on, because I found out that not only do I get spam without it, but it gets passed on to anyone commenting in that thread. Not cool!

That really is a bug I do NOT know, tho' I've heard of them FOREVER. There WAS a cloud of SUPER super TINY things on our pickup 2 days ago, but I forgot to photograph them before it rained.
ReplyDeleteI don't even know the scale of these tiny creatures, so if one landed in my coffee, I'd probably just think "ew" and "poor little bug."
How big is that pup? (btw, AWESOME "guess" re: quiz--SO good, I'll have to wait to post. =) )
This was a big guy; I forgot to take his photo with a ruler first, and then he jumped and was lost, but I was using my lens and he was still only a small critter in the centre of the field, so he can't have been more than about 5 mm.
