Today I found four new (to me) species of spider in my garden. Given that I have been here for 27 (twenty-seven!) years this coming March, and, especially in the las ten, have been actively looking for critters at least every week, it's rather amazing. I post them on iNaturalist and eventually, if it's possible, some kind entomologist will identify them, if I can't. Since I last blogged, I have had lots of (mainly critter-oriented) adventures, this can serve as an introduction.
Here is the first of this species I have ever seen - a Bird-dropping spider. I walked past it twice at first before I realised that bird-poo is rarely symmetrical.
