    New clothes

    While scanning the garden, from my camp stool, I thought I had spied two 'spider corpses' wafting in the breeze ...... in actual fact it was a Lynx spider shedding his exoskeleton.
    Here he/she is after completing the procedure ...

          It's amazing how they can slide out of the old "suit" and leave it almost intact! Well spotted Barb!

          My memory's not as sharp as it used to be.

              Thanks guys

              I have never seen them in the shedding process before either .... pure fluke I spotted him as he is quite small (hanging from a blade of grass). I have seen plenty of 'corpses' in the garden, including two belonging to Huntsman spiders.

              We have another 20-40mm rain tonight/tomorrow so I hope he finds a sheltered spot for the duration.
