Water Fleas (Daphnia) are a type of Cladoceran Crustacean.
Sometimes they resemble flakes of gold in the sunlight.
They swim using their 2nd set of antennae.
The main concentrations were near the marginal vegetation. Yum fish food. #WaterFlea #Daphnia #Breckland #Norfolk #invertebrate #rivers 5/25

Working on an updated version of my daphnia brooch.
It’s been ages, and I’m loving all the beads and sequins I can use now!

A water flea and copepods that were found in pond water. I always wonder what their world looks like to them. How do they see their world? Are they aware of us? A secret world.
