I call them 'Daddy Longlegs' (hang over form my pommy days) though for once, here in Aussie they ain't that big.

Great shots, guys!

Figured I'd post up a few taken over the past half year or so since I last put one up in here

The Praying Mantis was from last Summer, the Hoppy Spider a month or so back and the Bee in the Red Clover was taken last week.

The praying mantis is doing it's darnedest to turn dark slate blue to no avail, the hoppy spider looks somewhat disappointed, not sure why, maybe you got his bad side, and the bee is having a big time doing what bees do. Excellent shots to Dave all jokes aside. You take some of the sharpest images.

Gary, excellent shots, you actually have to look closely to "see" the Mantis. Ant and Hornet are great too

Very cool!

Is that the color of the dragon fly or did you do some voodoo to the pic?

Looks like you chased the first toad through a haunted house for it's covered in cobwebs. The dragonfly shots are killer and the lizard is just cool. Great shots Gary!!
