What an odd thing to see walking up the coffee maker. Tiny, tiny, maybe the size of a seed tick. It measured in at 1.0 mm.

By the time I got the camera out it was walking across the lineoleum on the kitchen counter. I never did figure out what it was until hours later when I saw the photos.

Not sure how it ended up in the kitchen, but perhaps it had been living in a potted plant, or maybe it came in with some nature objects that we bring in from time to time, like colorful fall leaves.
