I have chosen to show some of the wildlife around my house and garden on the Wirral in the UK – if you are squeamish you may want to give them a miss!
Garden spider (Araneus diadematus)
Great Black Slug (Arion ater)
Bluebottle (Calliphora species)
Common Earwig ( Forficula auricularia )
House Spider (Tegenaria domestica)
Garden Snail (Helix aspera )

ReplyDeleteHello Ann - I use a Sony digital camera and most of those were taken with a Sony DSC-H1 though that has now been superceded.
ReplyDeleteThe snail did his acrobatics all on his own, Doreen!
