I saw this in a creek sample, it's 60 um long and exhibited no activity. Is it a plant or animal?

Two spores quietly enjoying a post coital cigarette?

I agree with 75RR. They appear to be conidium of some sort.

Alternaria, perhaps (a guess, only...I'm not very fungus-savvy

).

So spore of a fungus that has just undergone mitosis. Ok, I can live with that.
