Can you think of a better name for
insects that walk on water? Our ancestors
couldn't either, but your field guide calls
them water striders. They hike around on
the pond all their lives without even
getting wet feet, and in shallow water on a
sunny day their shadows sink like stones
and
tag along on the bottom. But who minds a
wet shadow? If you had wide-spread, waxy
feet that didn't break the surface film,
you, too, could walk on water. And be
famous for fifteen minutes.
The popularity of "Jesus Bugs - Water
Striders" issued in 1969 has encouraged
Charley Harper to release a sister
serigraph image in 2006. (The original
Water Strider image retails for $1,200 -
1,600 on the secondary market.)
