Who needs a web when you've got leafy real estate, right? Mother Nature's quirky architect strikes again!

My fave composition of this incredible spider, off centre and low what yous think, trying to keep it fresh?

Bit of a colour explosion on this super tiny jumper myself and cygnustech tried desperately to photograph in the sweltering heat while it just would not play ball, a simple portrait single shot was best I got of such a cool wee spood.

Single shot in perdana botanical gardens

Been a nice nice here with hardly any wind. I did my first dark spider hunt, got 3 stacks, and this walnut orb-weaver spider, being the first, in web 30 image stacked in helicon.

One for the #spider lovers, Rhitymna pinangensis, huntsman spider.

Amazing and fairly massive #Arachnids found on a night hike, two rather rushed single shots for myself, and it was off.

Thank you to Weemadbeasties for coming down to the wee forest this morning and capturing some of the biodiversity in the space. He also took on a #WeeMadBeasties apprentice. Glasgow GALLANT Community Community Learning @ Glasgow Science Centre

Weemadbeasties has received public recognition for some time, accumulating over 116k followers on social media. However, it's great to see his hard work being recognised by the academic community and the GALLANT team University of Glasgow- excited to see what comes next #weemadbeast

Another oddity that could easily have starred in starship troopers is this shieldbug. I'm pretty sure it's Megacopta cribraria.
