Seems the insect life in the pond think spring is here as there was a large hatch of midge larvae today. No sign of the midges just hundreds of the exoskeletons (Exuviae) on the surface of the pond. I fished a few out and photographed them on a white plate filled with water. Used a macro lens for greater detail Click to Zoom into the images and you can see the breathing tubes from the gills around the head. These were not visible to the naked eye until the macro lens picked them up.
