More creepy crawlies

Well there are a few creepy crawlies of various types out there at the moment. So here I have some pictures to share again -

The first is this very funky looking bright orange spider. I do not have an ID for this one yet, but I think it is just a very pretty coloured garden spider. They seem to be trying to fatten up ready for the winter at the moment - mummy is always complaining that there are webs everywhere! I love the orange on this one - it is close to being as pretty as my yellow crest!


And there was also this guy - very long and thin. This one looks really creepy compared to the fat bodied orange one. This one was hiding under the nettle leaves so isn't making such a large web where mummy can walk through it hehe.

 Under the same nettles were also this little beetle - again no idea what it is, but it had little yellow triangles on the wingsheilds. They all want to be more like me :)




And then there were these little caterpillars too! These are moth caterpillars at this time of year and are very tiny! Still no idea what they are.


And finally some greenery from the garden - I get to eat this sometimes (when the guinea pig doesn't steal it first!)

Bed time now people!!

Let's finish up May

Starting off with a couple of videos of the Blue tits before the babies fledged. They were in and out constantly!! Then we had Mr greedy crow, showing off to the camera about how many suet balls he can fit into his beak at once haha. This Magpie was finding something very tasty - we are pretty certain it was the live mealworms mummy put out and not a baby blue tit though. This little madam was winding the Blue Tits up - luckily the baby's were at the fledging stage before she found the nest! Some pictures of the pairs coming into the garden. Then the wagtails started bringing the babies in :) Flopped Doris! Just thought this was a great picture. And some baby pictures, as well as the blackbirds and hedgehogs. Right bedtime xxx

Moving into those April showers

Image
We are nearly at the end of the March pictures and moving into the rather soggy end of March, beginning of April lol. It has dried up a little bit again now though. The crows love trying to get the suet feeder down off the feeding station - although it is a little more difficult with the top from the other bird feeder in there also haha. We got our first hedgehog into the garden at the end of March too!! And on April fools day this crow was having great fun with the fat ball hahaha Mummy also wanted to get some pictures of the Magpies eating at the peanut flutter butter feeder - and there are some great pics. And we caught the blue tits on camera!! Mummy got very excited when she saw this! Well anyway I need to head to bed and let mummy get the latest photo's off the camera! Bye-bye!

Spider drops

Ooh hello everybody, Have you come here from mummy's blog? To find out about this picture It is a pretty poor picture as the camera refused to focus on the tiny little spider. So GavGav got interested in spiders over a year ago now. He still has a slight phobis of them, but his way of overcoming it is to find out more aboout them, and the fear transforms into interest instead. It seems to be working as he likes to go out with his sonic toothbrush, making the spiders lunge out to try and grab it, and he has also got himself two taratulas. Hmm it would appear that we do not have any photos of them yet, so I shall have to get some to show you! Anyway, this interest means that they are more likely to notice spiders doing funny, or unusual things - although mummy has always been quite good at paying attention to any animal of any shape or size. Last summer she nearly planted an extra large garden spider. She dug the hole, upended the plant out of its pot, and the spider fell into
