Out and About

The Wasp Spiders seem to be thriving, I found another colony some distance from last years.
I assume that the smaller, dead one in the web is the male.

  12. Great set of images, John, of which my favourites are the Crab Spider, Stonechat and the hoverfly(?). I'd love to see one of the Wasp Spiders in UK. I found one in Bosnia in 2008, not knowing what the hell it was, and I admit to being more than a little daunted by it!

    Naturally, my attention went immediately to your gorgeous female dragonfly (Aeshna cyanea), if it the latin name helps!
    Also the yellow moth is wonderful and I just love the Stonechat!
