Just a reminder that this thread is not for birds. There is a separate thread for that here:

Garden Bird Pics

I will move these posts there. \O

Flutts, try looking up! I often see large birds in the distance - they are usually YBKs but you never know!

Back to this past weekend. A couple of new ones for me, first up on Saturday was this magnificent Garden Commodore Butterfly which waited patiently for me to get my camera out and assembled.

The other new one was a Slender Ant.

A small wasp that I've photographed before but hasn't been identified yet.

And a tiny caterpillar.

Nan will want to skip the next few pics.

A Jumping Spider - I need to get that new Spider Field Guide - Estoril have their 20% off sale today (last Monday of every month), so I think I'll drop in there on the way home.

That was Saturday's take - details of most of these fascinating creatures can be seen on the AW Info Books.
