It flitted past me so quickly I had no chance to register much more! At this rate, I'll soon be seen leaping around the garden with a fishing net! I know what you mean. An afternoon's planned gardening soon becomes a butterfly/moth photographing and id-ing exercise. I haven't wafted a net around yet, but I did save a Jersey Tiger Moth from a huge spider's web. That's dedication, that is! :~) I'd called that selfless! ;-) I call it cruelty to the spider, depriving it of a meal :-) It already had quite a few hits on its website. This is one spider that won't starve! -- Spider from high ground in SE London gardening on clay |
