See what you think about this one here.

 
Indeed!
I think you have it right...Thanks a lot Tom! Will move tentatively. My Masters supervisor Dr Donna Giberson at UPEI (University of Prince Edward Island) will soon have a look at my image series (when she gets back from her expedition to the Canadian Arctic) and give her two cents worth as well- She specializes in Ephemeroptera, Trichoptera and Plecoptera. I should have saved this one! I have seen them on the property before, so will make sure to keep the next one (Which may only be next year now, I guess...)
