Having set this theme - I'm struggling to find the time to take some pictures - though I am out in the morning to a photoshoot and there should be something between the sets - I hope!

Was working on a much better picture I grabbed this week of a spider trapping and devouring a large fluttery thing  focusing on the spider. Then I checked and found   a spider is not an insect! Creepy crawlies are all the same to me

I had to google it too just to make sure! And the garden was full of bees yesterday.

I nearly forgot! Nothing new though - despite being in the Wyre forest yesterday - though did see some lovely birds!

Apologies for not sorting the poll out yesterday - had a busy day - and it was bloody hot!

[Oldboy]

The poll is set up on a Monday, so you are not late.

Thanks Oldboy - but its still not up for some reason - I did it this morning but has disappeared/never appeared

I'll do it now.

Oh it is - going blind as well as stupid. But I forget to add the time limit - and can't seem to see how that can be edited now?
