I've just spotted a creature moving across the surface of my pond, which
has created a protective "shell" for itself by cutting two neat ovals
(approx 15mm long) from my lily leaves, and has somehow stuck them
together with it inside. A bit like caddis larvae do with grit etc.,
but this is definitely operating on the surface.
Any ideas what it is?
I'm in southern England BTW.
Cheers,
Martin.
