Even my subjects are few and far between...

A lack of time and a paucity of subjects recently - but I managed some tonight.

There is a bark fly, Ectopsocus briggsi, a GHS male (the giant house spider is one of our fastest invertebrates, running up to half a metre per second. This large, brown spider spins sheet-like cobwebs and pops up in the dark corners of houses, particularly in autumn). Scientific name: Eratigena atrica.

 

The last couple are of a small candy stripe spider Enoplognatha ovata. The common candy-striped spider, is a species of spider belonging to the family Theridiidae.

Great set Paul, this year I've found that there are very few bugs around for macro shots
