    Ditto...have yet to find one, or photograph one! Well done Christine. Endearing little creatures aren't they. Posted 5 years ago

      Thanks, Ruth! I frequently find them on the pores/gills of mushrooms, although I often don't see them until processing the mushroom photos ;). They are tiny! Posted 5 years ago
