My kids and I were enjoying a summertime snack on the patio earlier today, and this little thing was found on the table-along with many others! Nothing was added, doctored, or retouched.
What do you think it is?

How about a frog?
But frogs aren’t mean usually. Lazy and annoying, but not usually mean. Maybe it’s sarcasm…:)
Hi Michaelc- good guess, cause that’s what the pic suggests- but not a frog (nor a to-ad
a hummingbird?
not a hummingbird…
a scorpion
maybe a moth? But again, not a very scary critter
its the mandible of a wasp/bee.
a turtle, perhaps a box turtle…
A worm in an apple.
none yet; will post a little more of the picture later on today
Maybe a mosquito or mosquito larva. They are mean!
ok, before I post a little more of the picture, here’s a big hint:
It’s not an animal
A tick?
maybe its a fungus in a cake or in a slice of bread
A dead mosquito in a spider web
A mushroom perhaps…
a venus fly trap?
ok, big hint now

a corn nut?
it could be a snake
a Melon seed?
looks like a Watermelon seed to me.
Some very good guesses, and detmom and MattHogan got it. The photo was a closeup of an OrangeGlo Watermelon seed, the fruit of which is one of the most delicious things you’ll ever come across. Very different from a regular watermelon…and the bright orange flesh really does glow orange.
And the seeds look like little critters-

This weekend I should be able to get another one, and will try to post a picture of the melon cut so you can see
Hmmmm…..Just a thought….the “believe it or not” and the “mean little critter” were kind of misleading in my opinion.
mfeex-thanks for the feedback. I agree, will remove ‘believe it or not’. ‘ Mean little critter’ initially didn’t have a question mark at the end of it, but shortly after posting went back and put that in….maybe it needs to be removed altogether…
[...] this’ll redeem me a bit from the impossibly hard one put up last [...]
