Congratulations, Lynette!
Now see if you can find a soft-bodied mill*ipede :-)

Ugh!
I honestly think I would have found one by now!? I must not have an eye for them. I know they are only about 2mm, but I see plenty of other tiny bugs. Oh well, I usually don't find this stuff anyway, they find me :).

You've got to dig for them.
They're unlikely to be photographed crossing the trail or perching on a leaf as so many of the submitted shots have been. You need to remove old bark, rip open rotten logs, etc.
