huwalu_ka_usingDescripción
L2 Dytiscus larva, another species I haven't seen before, not D. harrisii or D. hatchi, also doesn't appear to be the species of my last Dytiscus larva observation. Caught dip-netting in a blackwater slough.
Also hopefully going to rear this larva to adulthood to see what species they are.
Update: they have ecdysed into third instar.

Appeared to be shuttling very large youngsters across the dyke, as it went back and forth a couple of times. Thought I'd never see it again after the first crossing, as with the high-speed glimpses I get of most weasels, but this one put on a show!

Two Ravens - Second photo showing bill clasping. An article from Science news 'Look at that!' Ravens gesture with their beaks to point out objects to each other also makes some interesting points:
Pointing and holding up objects in order to attract attention has so far only been observed in humans and our closest living relatives, the great apes. Researchers now provide the first evidence that ravens (Corvus corax) also use so called deictic gestures in order to test the interest of a potential partner or to strengthen an already existing bond.
