Nice find!

Thanks! Have found a surprising variety of stuff at this one spot --iron hand railings for a small shaded bridge just in back of my residence--recently, including crab spiders, jumping spiders, fungus weevils, fungus beetles, two species of springtails, saddleback caterpillar moth, and more! Not sure why.

 
Railings near water
Railings near water always seem to attract a lot of insects. I live about 30 feet from a river and my balcony railings always have something cool on them. Something going right over the water, and shaded has to have lots of cool stuff!
