The bird bath water is cold and there seemed to be no life on the slide...
Until Willy the worm (larvae of some kind)
I didn't say it on the video but some is speeded up 4x.
I washed it off slide back into the sample water. We kinda bonded.

That is close to what "William" is or was. I have not seen Willy again. There is a little gnat like insect flying around the house plant and I hope Willie made it to the flying stage but I doubt it. He will be missed.

Re: Willy
xioz,
It really makes you think. A caterpillar to a butterfly is seen as beautiful but a larvae into a midge, mosquito or even a beetle usually is not.
It is amazing to be at one point swimming under water and then be transformed into having wings and flying through the air landing in bushes and trees.
Frogs of course is another one but they still enjoy water activities as well.
I seen Willy again but had no luck getting him. The water got dumped in my house plant. Now if I see a small gnat like insect-
I will say- "William, Is that you? How are you doing?"

Great informative webpage about
Says-
Chironomid larvae are cylindrical and have paired prolegs on the prothoracic and last abdominal segments (Fig. 8.11B). The head is heavily sclerotized and nonretractile. They have no spiracles. Many species, however, have a hemoglobin-like substance in their hemolymph and are called bloodworms because of their pink or red color.
