        No good on Bee ID but the spider may be a Woodlouse spider (Dysdera Crocata).

            We had a dancing visit from a solider beetle, it never stayed still for a second, only just managed one imperfect photo.

            In contrast, the broad-bodied chaser found 2 perching spots to its liking, repeatedly returning to them after chasing some insects.

            And of course, we are still in the damselfly season...

              Thanks

              I do like to look at (and chase after) the wildlife around me. Nowadays, with the convenience of a digital camera, I take pictures whenever I see something unusual or interesting just so I can keep a record of what is out there. Also it is easier to put a picture on iSpot for identification if I come across something I don't know. Over the years with lots of trial and error my photo skill has slowly improved, but there's still a long way to go yet judging by the quality of photos I've seen on this forum.

                New visitors to our garden,I believe they are more common than Sparrows in many gardens.
                This is the first time ever I have seen them in our garden,there are a gang of five and they fight like mad to take turns on the fatballs.
