Spiderlings (not at all scary)!

Spiderlings (not at all scary)!
About this time of year I start looking for spiderlings. I couldn't find any in the back garden, but as my wife was putting out the garden waste bin for the recycling people to collect she found these in a web around the bin lid. So we had to delay putting out the bin so I could get a decent photo and then I picked them up carefully up and relocated them to a small flower pot in the corner of the garden.

If you can stand it, please view large for best effect. It's always difficult to get these completely in focus as they don't really stop moving :-)

For Macro Dreams Chalenges: multiples, Insects, repetition.

Great colors, Keith! They look like they've crossed with bumble bees - ha! I have never seen such a thing, such a superb shot!

Ha, ha..............sorry about that, but they really are cute as this stage in their life and completely harmless :-)

They've all disappeared now...........they put out a string of silk and let the wind blow them away to a new life!

Sorry I can’t go big. I’m getting better. I’m pretending they are seeds
