Having a party in a mushroom… mirrorwolves main account (does not post but if it follows you that’s me), riverthorncottage a wider variety of nature content for one location. If I post it from scratch & don’t credit somebody else it’s mine. I mean, the bugs are their own. The pics are mine.

springtail eating a salad

The springtail appears to be lying flat on the chair staring into space while holding a fork halfheartedly to the salad hoping it will eat itself somehow, and this is also how I eat a salad

Onychiuridae with 10x microscope objective. Much fun! These are crops even though the original field of view is less than 2mm.

Had a nice weekend taking the Monstrosity to my favorite park in the city for springtails. Evenings at the beach for low tide (some pics from that later) and afternoons looking for springtails and mites in a wet area in the woodland.

The Neanurid may be Morulodes, but I’m not certain. The glob is some species of Ptenothrix. Not sure who the insect is.

A few springtails found during the field test of the updated Monstrosity, my microscope objective ultra macro lens based on designs widely used in the studio for focus stacking.

This isn’t necessarily the easiest or best way to get into high magnification photography; I know many people who use commercially built 5x macro lenses and that’s much easier and not that much more expensive unless you already own most of the equipment to build something like this. It’s just the route I happened to take and I have fun with it! I’m very satisfied with my field tests and looking forward to spending more time crouching in the leaf litter pointing a giant lens at tiny guys.

I have some mites and pseudoscorpions too, but I still have to spend a bit more time masking out dust on my backgrounds before posting those… 😅

Velvetworm, Ooperipatellus viridimaculatus, Peripatopsidae, New Zealand

Like all velvetworms, this species is a nocturnal ambush predator that subdues its prey by squirting glue-like slime from glands near the mouth to entrap it.

last night we went mothing with the moth people and their light/sheet for the second time for their moth diversity project (last time we went was last year which is what got me into mothing) and it is so crazy for me to be able to join a group of like 5+ people that i don’t know and feel comfortable enough to unmask even slightly but the moth people make me feel safe we are all just excitedly clambering over moths together for three hours in the middle of the forest at night going OOOH WOWWW SO COOL !! SO PRETTY !!!! CATCH THAT MOTH DONT LET HIM GET AWAY !!!AAHHHH HES ESCAPING !!! etc….

Your version of a good day can evolve over time too, and that’s okay. 💛

saw a bug

You think I’m doing a bit but for serious I used to wake up every morning and think “nothing good will happen to me today” and now I wake up and think “today I might meet an interesting bug” and it changed my life so much.
