Thank you for the ident Alan .. much appreciated! .Thanks Neil .. I love walking around this area in the early mornings when I'm home in Devon. It's an area of heathland, that I used to ride on when I had horses. Now managed by The Devon Wildlife Trust
Awesome photos and spotting, Viv. The web looks like foam.
Can you give me a correct ident for this spider please Janine?
I would add but can't find the mission JanineLingTurner
would you please consider adding this spotting to http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/4649... The U.K Arthropod Survey as it would be a very interesting contribution. Thanks!
