    Actually I thought there was some sort of critter in the hedge, with what looked like two slitted yellow eyes. See attached (I hope you don't mind me reposting part of your photo).

    I didn't see the spider webs until I did what you suggested and looked closer ... interesting ... but of course creepy.

    Great photo of the web close up, it is amazing how they manage to create these sometimes.

    Five days later, all the spiders in post #1 are still there.
    But, the spider and the web in post #8 was gone the day after I posted that picture. We think that someone walked through it.

    Larry: I wish I had known your fear of spiders. Then I could have taken some close-ups to be used as therapy!
    My wife also hates spiders. If there is one in the room somewhere, I HAVE to catch it and put it outside.
    My wife and kids have actually held snakes. Surprisingly, I didn't even go into the shop.

    So, you with spiders and me with snakes. We make quite a pair, eh?!

    Thanks for your concern Rik, but, I can do without the close-ups thank you.
    Yeah quite a pair.
    I was wondering about your wife and kids, did they also hold a spider at any time or just a snake?
    I remember several years ago I walked out the front door on my way to work and I felt something drop on my head. Just as before I got to my car a large spider came crawling down my face. That really freaked me out.

    Well, over a month has gone by and we are in the middle of November.

    Should we still be looking at this amount of greenery?!

    And, not all, but some of the Spiders are still there.
    Here's one of them!

    I was not aware that Mr Name:  mr.png

    So, basically you're telling me that all this time I thought I was safe - I actually wasn't.

    I'm going to have to start a petition to get him released.

    Yeah, I guess you are in big trouble unless you can get him released, but then if you do I may be in big trouble. Oh woe is me, what to do, what to do.
