Globular springtails on the Pond Stones (plus a larva?)

[Paul Iddon]

These 5 photos are of the globbies on the stones and the at edge of the pondwater where the stones are submerged.

Also at the top of the post is some kind of larva, attached to the stone (under the surface).

I have a similar ( sloping area) to my pond I never thought to check there,
I'll take a look if the weather ever improves.

Another cracking set Paul
