Snow Scorpionflies are not true flies and don't look especially like scorpions. But the "snow" part of their name is certainly accurate.  You may find these curious insects walking, hopping, but never flying from the snowy surfaces in your particular winter wonderland.  And if you do, why not post about them on iNaturalist. This episode includes a useful tip about cell phone photography of very small things. The cover art for this episode is cropped from an image of a female snow scorpionfly; note the total lack of wings.
