I see you, but you don't see me

Spot the critter.

These are not the seeds of dandelion. They are of Jupiter's Beard. A fraction of the size of dandelion.

Super detail and looks so fragile. A little puff of wind can probably blow it apart. V

Awesome shot! I see the critter on the side, but it blends in so well I could've
easily missed it if you hadn't mentioned it. BV!
