This colourful little character caught my attention two nights ago, walking in agitated circles around and around a potplant.
I'm not sure if it was looking for a place to lay eggs, judging by the fluffy bundle beneath it's body and protruding from it's behind. The following morning it was hanging around on the patio floor, apparently threatening Dingo the dog who was fascinated but too intimidated to approach it.
Unfortunately having a wee camera and a mixture of cloud and morning light was not conducive to adequately capturing the pretty shade of green on this spider's back.
But I did think this a rather cute snap - it almost looks like the spider was more intent on eating the web than building it.
