Thomisus (onustus)


It pays to buy organic. This beast came in an organic Batavia lettuce from Spain. If it had been found in the wild, it would have been "new to Norfolk." Thomisus is found elsewhere in Britain, like the Surrey heaths.

Diaea dorsata


Diaea dorsata, a crab spider. Collected this beast last early June, snapped it indoors, then let it go.

The graph that made me wonder just how bad CO2-induced climate change can be.
