For the last #Spooktober day, I present you a creepy spider. This one - a wasp spider - had its spiderweb among the flowers in my "flower meadow" last year, and reappeared this year, too (had to destroy its web when I was tidying up dry stalks). Was it really the same one? How long do they even live?

There were several of these creepy-crawlies in our garden this year. I think it's a cricket, only mildly creepy on my disgusto-scale. Much less than a mole cricket, which I wouldn't inflict upon you here even with a content warning 🤢 (don't look it up)

Another creepy-crawly for #Spooktober - brought inside on the rim of a bucket I used for weeds. Decided not to add content warning this time, hopefully it won't scare anyone too much. Honestly, I can't decide if it's creepy or beautiful 🤔

(If you know what exactly it is, let me know).

Forget the news, get frightened by creepy insects! There were a lot of praying mantises visiting us this year (managed to prevent Kitty-boo from crunching on any), but this one was willing to pose for a nice portrait 😄 I keep being amazed and creeped out at the same time at these weirdos.

I'm afraid it's now my hobby to photograph all of the #CreepyCrawlies and weird stuff that #LadyDuchess and I come across in our evening walks in the woods.

Honestly, I've come to find it all quite beautiful.

I've always loved #Hiking, but I'm only now discovering part of a world that I've long been part of, but barely understand.
