Round and round the garden…

17 Oct 2008

Just a few shots from walking around the garden the other day. I managed to catch the yellow spider in the act of wrapping up his lunch for a feast later on. Just watching that whole process makes me appreciate the fact we (humans) have fridges and freezers instead of some organic wrap secreted from our bodies.

The little caterpillar was really small, I would guesstimate about 7mm long, maybe 1mm thick. The reflective surface is my car, which has helped me out with bug reflections on more than 1 occassion. If there is any one thing that my car does do reliably and consistently, it is bug reflections.

    Nice macro shots!
    and what a smart idea to use the car… thought you had photographed it on a mirror, but a silver car is probably better. Less reflections and it is there when you are out and around at least! Luckily our is silver too…
    Thanks for a great idea!
