The daisy bushes are the best source of subject matter at this time of year - in a month or three the ribbon bushes will flower and take over until May or June.

Maybe they should be Crabby Spiders

And I keep finding new species! It's a constant source of wonder for me!

Thanks Nan! Another cute hairy spider coming up!

Last Saturday Afternoon, as I walked into the garden there were two Blackcollared Barbets on the ground playing with something. They scarpered when I moved to see what they had and it turned out to be a Garden Fruit Chafer Beetle.




I gingerly approached this Paper Wasp: they have a reputation for packing a punch when they sting! Luckily I haven't had that misfortune - yet!




A Net-Winged Beetle.



A Pugnacious Ant.


And last, but not least, a special something for Nan




I think Jumping Spiders are cute!

thank you to prevent me... I stopped at the Ant....

magnificent photos

Yip, Jumping Spiders are cute ants and wasps though look slightly grumpy

As usual my fav is the beetle
