09.03.19 - Knighton Park

The combination of gale force winds, horizontal rain and sleet meant that we didn't venture far, but a brief sunny interval allowed us to nip out to the local park. The leaf litter is over for the season now so this was my first beating collection for the season. This yielded lots of Entomobrya multifasciata:

and a few Entomobrya nicoleti:

Springtail-wise nothing surprising, but some nice spiders (which I write about in the other place), and an opportunity to practice a few new photographic approaches, in the warm and out of the wind.
