Went on a Nature Hunt 2 day in the Nettles/Weeds behind my Laurals Didnt no what id find but i could see the Nettles had been Eaten So i took a closer look….. Not thinking i turned The Nettle Leaf Over ( OUCH) & what i saw was worth the STING MY 1st Baby Caterpillar on the NETTLES:D

A Thrush Visits early every morning & 2 day i think i found his BREAKFAST BAR??? A MOSSED STONE Surrounded by Empty Whole&Broken Snail Shells He must be a FAT THRUSH ….

I lifeted some Over growth & found even more Tiny Creatures….

I was on way out of Nettles/Weeds when i saw something move FAST It was SO STILL i found it hard2see

What fun!... a backgarden safari! The inchworm and the itsy-bitsy spider...
"Inchworm, Inchworm,
Measuring the marigolds
You and your arithmetic
You'll probably go far...
Inchworm, Inchworm,
Measuring the marigolds
Seems to me,
You should stop and see
How beautiful they are."

That was a favourite song of my boys when they were very small...also Itsy-Bitsy Spider. I think it is a wolf spider...they are very beneficial and that thrush should hire out his relatives. Seems they're in demand.
You are becoming a nature photographer!

Hi Simon :) when u dig up those nettles just make sure u take enough soil with them & extra if need be so then u can use the Soil they were growing in ;)
