  1. #BREAKING: the long-legged velvet mites (family Erythraeidae) are out in force! They're the little red guys seen in large numbers running around on concrete and such, eating pollen, sap, dead bugs, and other plentiful springtime foods.

    (Not 100% sure on genus for this particular one, will edit in later if I find out)

  5. You know what day it is. It's #WeevilWednesday. Post 'em if you got 'em.

    I think this is _Barypeithes pellucidus_, a. k. a. the hairy spider weevil. Found in the garden snacking on a dandelion stem with its snoot covered in pollen.

  9. The young Eastern redbud tree (_Cercis canadensis_) in the co-op garden is blooming! Today I saw winter ants (_Prenolepis imparis_) feeding from the flowers, regular-sized ants climbing up the trunk, ants replete with nectar climbing down.

  17. The tiny little yellow globular springtails are out and dancing on the leaves! They lock antennae and twirl around and around. The smaller ones are the males and you will sometimes see multiple males trying to dance with a female. I have been trying to get a video that isn't too blurry/shaky.

    Springtails are not insects; like insects they are six-legged arthropods, but they are on a separate branch of the arthropod "family tree". I always refer people to Andy Murray's Collembola page for the great up-close photos and overviews of the major groups: chaosofdelight.org/collembola-

  28. Also came across this ant…event? Largely static, no one running around frantically, just pairs and small groups facing off.

    I got stung by nettles taking this photo lol.

    I told my sister I would ask an ant person (@futurebird) what was happening.
