Duluth Frog Blog: Fairy Shrimp

http://duluthfrogblog.blogspot.com/2012/04/fairy-shrimp.html

These aquatic critters are fascinating to watch as they swim around upside down with their many leaf-like or feathery legs. I recently found large numbers of fairy shrimp swimming around developing wood frog eggs. There were hundreds of them! I had never seen this before, so I tried to capture some pictures. 15 fairy shrimp next to wood frog egg mass.
