I hope you realise how brave I’m being photographing and looking up all these spiders!  Lot of respect for them and they’re very important, but they freak me out. Some of the images I’ve seen while trying to ID them are stuff of nightmares.

I'm amazed that you manage to photograph everything (almost) that you see. Fantastic photos too. Don't know about the spiders but that dog looks very scary. Big Grin (Not really, Breeze, you're a sweetie).

Oh those eyes! On Breeze not the spider, in case you were wondering. I've no problem with spiders, but identifying them is onerous (so I don't bother. Smile
