Day 136 of 365

I cannot even begin to describe how small these bugs are. This was a reverse macro shot at 18mm. Keep in mind that a lot of snowflakes at 18mm will fill the frame. After a quick Google search, I found out that the scientific name is Deuterosminthurus nonfasciatus. Their body length is far less than one millimeter. Tough to get a good shot of them simply because they're so small. Go out into your garden and stare at a leaf long enough, and I'm sure you'll see one eventually =D

AND you can see hairs on the leaf. I didn't even know leaves HAD hairs. :noes:

Okay well I know some leaves have hair, but this doesn't look like one I would expect to have them... :P
