Tardigrade. 13 May 2026. Tidewater, Mid-Atlantic. (Video)

We collected some green moss from the edge of our garden pond and left it soaking in water overnight. The next day, we put a drop of the water on a microscope slide and examined it. It wasn't long before we found tardigrades moving through the sample (among other small organisms). Watching them up close was mesmerizing and one of the most remarkable moments I've had!

Le clou de cette petite série, c’est - évidemment - le tardigrade de l’église Saint-Eusèbe/Eusebiuskerk à Arnhem, une création contemporaine, disons, inattendue, de l’artiste néerlandais Arno Coenen. Juin 2025.

Picture of a tardigrade (water bear) I took through a microscope for my studies a couple of years ago.
