I thought it was just some crud on the water but on checking the photo i took i am wondering if it is some sort of insect?

Hi there,
Thanks for your contribution/photo. I have downloaded the original photo, cropped it and added it back to aid in identification.

Thanks Shorty, they look very interesting, being a different colour to others we've seen.
