A soft photo of the deadliest animal out there 🙏 I'm not sure, if this specific species will bite humans - or if it is a female - but it seems to be something of such sort!

Springtail time! Did you know, that these tiny creatures are hydrophobic? Which means, they can walk on still water AND don't even create ripples, when jumping on it (since they are so light too) 🏄♂️

Fairy parachutes/Marasmiellus candidus, when they open all the way up they look really cool. I had the perfect lighting that day too.

Springtails, these little magnificent animals, that so remind me of something mythical - like a unicorn 🦄😂 For real though. They're in the most scenic places, making them VERY photogenic. 🤩

The masters of multitasking, millipedes were often told to have 1,000 legs. That'd be an impressive number! But they do in fact not have 1,000 legs - or at least, most don't... 🐛

Today I wanted to post these warriors. They can't fly, are more on the slower side and are pretty big. But even though everything seems to be harsh on them, nature gave them a secret weapon. OIL. They can secrete toxic oil from their joints. But don't touch it! It can irritate.

Today I wanted to share with you two images of water striders I had taken this year. These animals are fascinating and I could write forever about them. But I lack place 😅 Yet, I did write an article for the website of @untold-wildlife.bsky.social, if you wanna check it out.

Yesterday morning I was walking around, camera in hand. I didn't expect to find something. But I did come across some frost and I felt an urge to see, how crystals look like up close (stacked too).
Unbelievable, in what a delicate world we live in. Every tiny thing is wow!

Amazing capture 🤩
