Common red soldier beetle (Rhagonycha fulva).

I had hoped to get all the way to Day 900 before I had to disappear, but time has got the better of me. Tomorrow I move house, a traumatic experience for anyone, but coupled with a limited physical state, I guess you could say I’m about on my knees!

I won’t be gone forever, just a week or two, but in the mean time The 365 Day Photo Project will have go on hold.

Wish me luck and see you when my broadband is once again up and running!!

A little European Garden Spider (Araneus diadematus), appears to have got herself in a bit of a pickle. She’s spun a single silken thread, emanating from each corner of her body, but what does she do now, is she stuck?

Well no, the spider’s not stuck, she’s actually in the first stages of spinning a new web, the new silk strands are her guidelines or anchors, which she’ll use as a basis to build her new web.

Quite amazing really, she doesn’t need an architect’s drawings, she instinctively knows what to do.

The term blow-fly (Calliphoridae) is an old English phrase used to describe meat that had been impregnated with eggs and consequently labeled ‘fly blown’ and judging by this fly’s fat abdomen, it looks like she could be full of eggs right now.
