I think this is a pond skater but it was about the size of large springtail

The first sabre wasp I have seen so I made the exception of posting a shot of it on my bag strap

I don't say it often enough, but the photos are a real pleasure to see, the detail is incredible, and I do appreciate the time and effort folks put in to take the shots and post them.

Thank you all :)

This little lady sat there for about 5 minutes in the same pose letting me play around with various camera settings, though I should have written down what settings I actually used and played around with.

What camera are you using?
Do you use any software to view/adjust them as this or the camera will show you your setting in what is called exit data
 
I'm using a Canon Powershot SX510 HS. I've managed to find the settings under the properties. I did sharpen the image up a bit using Google's Snapseed. If you look there's a darker cross which centres just to the top left of the hare's head, that's where there's a wire fence in the way.
