This caddisfly was collected from the northeastern United States on March 30th, 2007 and added to Troutnut.com on April 2nd, 2007.

It seemed to actually be cleaning its mandibles with its legs (or vice versa) in this picture and a couple of others.

This wins the award for "caddis larva which looks most like a bird." I wish there were a prize.
