The limpet is about 1 mm, lengthwise. The mouth end is down, and it's chomping away at algae on the glass. One of the antennae is visible. |

Just because
Laurie liked this photo. It's a tiny limpet on the glass wall of the aquarium, pushing up against the surface tension of the water.

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!

I like the photo, too. It shows a resiliency that can be found in all life.
ReplyDeleteThat is pretty lovely composition, and has a lot in it, tho' it is minimalist. =)
