Fun fact! The water strider (also known as the pond skater) is one of only 0.1% of insect species that are able to “walk” on water. They stay afloat thanks to their small weight and the surface tension of water. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10152648322280603&set=a.10152575329380603.958289.10150120463815603&type=1 https://twitter.com/projectnoah/status/312220781889331200
