Well, I didn't know pondskaters ate flies until now! Excellent capture Andrea - the lighting is lovely and I really like the addition of the water-snail!

Nature, red in tooth and claw, no matter the species. Remarkable how the Pond Skaters employ surface tension to avoid sinking below. Stellar shot of this feeding frenzy, A.

I haven't seen these since I was a boy. Outstanding capture. Its a wonder they don't eat each other.
