Three's a Crowd!

I've not seen this before, but I'm sure it's quite common. A long-jawed orb-weaver spider in the extras (try saying that after a few G & Ts!) Also known as common stretch spiders. They seem to appear just as the damselflies emerge. Not a coincidence I 'm sure.  And a male banded demoiselle too. It was quite a morning for the little creatures.

We opted for an early start for our bit of fresh air today. I wasn't up for serious walking in the heat and my other half wanted to watch the football. So that was an easy decision to make.
