  1. πŸ’πŸ»β€β™€οΈ ICYMI: πŸ”¬πŸŒΈ Japanese #nature photographer Pendora (ぺんどら) captures tiny globular #springtails measuring around 0.3 mm in length.

    These wetland micro-arthropods display face-to-face courtship interactions and use a spring-loaded tail organ called a furcula to execute high-speed jumps that look like #teleportation.

  5. πŸ’πŸ»β€β™€οΈ TIL: πŸ›©οΈπŸͺ° Male #dragonflies engage in aerial dogfights to defend territory, using simple visual rules like fighter pilots.

    Researchers in the #UK used stereoscopic cameras to reconstruct 3D flight paths of the scarlet Trithemis aurora dragonfly. The #insects pull up to 6 Gs and compete for tail chase positioning rather than intercepting like they do with prey.
