This #forestfriday check out these tiny denizens of the forest: springtails! Also called snow fleas, these little guys aren't actually fleas at all, they're helpful decomposers. They're always around, but are easiest to see when they hop around on top of snow on warm days. Have you spotted any snowfleas lately? #signsofspring #springtails | Northeast Wilderness Trust
