Bodo (of some flavor)
These Bodo really are small but they are sometimes very plentiful in a sample. When there are a lot of them they are fun to watch as they "jerk" along every which way. Tough to see in brightfield, they really stand out in phase contrast.
Here's a good page for reference:

It is amazing how you capture these little buggers Charlie. They look very good under phase. As a matter of fact I like this image a lot better than the previous post you dispalyed of these organisms.
