I keep saying it......

 

The cutest bugs on the Planet..... in all their glorious detail...

 

You have excelled yourself here Paul....

 

Y’know they would make excellent characters for a Children’s Book ?

Great macro shots as always, Paul.

How amazing that they are the favourite bugs of lots of  people - they are new to me. Where do they hang out?

It's their cuteness I think Cheryl.

They can be found on stones and bricks, leaf litter, under bits of wood, lots of places. This one is walking around on top of the recycling bin lid!

Well, there you go. I looked them up and the nearest we seem to have are Lucerne Fleas. Don’t think they are anyone’s favourite....

Fleas! I took a photo of a flea on my hand once - amazing to see them up close!
