This spider mite was running around at high speed on a bay leaf. It stopped 3 times. Once to have a pedicure and twice to have a nibble on something on the leaf. About 1.5mm body length. All focus stacks using zerene apart from the animation.

Carmine Spider Mite .

Tetranychus cinnabarinus

I have never seen one of these stopped. You'd have done well to get single images, never mind stacks.

Thanks for the comments Harold and Mark.

Mark - I was holding the leaf it was on for about 5 minutes waiting for it to stop moving
