Wow that looks fantastic! Spider webs are so beautiful!

Is that a monkey puzzle tree?

Yes it's a monkey puzzle tree Merl

it is covered with spider webs and does look beautiful with dew on them x

I thought so, we had a massive monkey puzzle in the garden of the house I grew up in, every now and then some branches would come down and as the are so smooth without the leaves we used them as swords!

Seems the spiders are loving yours! Spring and autumn are great for seeing the webs which look so magical!

I love to see the webs like that although I am not keen on the spiders! I have a yellow shrub thing (dont know what it is!) that is covered at the moment....very pretty.

I made a huge web in my garden a few years ago for the local garden safari, it had a giant spider and fly etc on it, it was not the easiest thing to make and to think that something as small as a spider can create such an amazing thing is remarkable really, nature is fascinating

ps. my web won first prize

I like spiders too, they are amazing, I name the ones in the flat and at work...

I'm glad I'm not the only one that likes spiders, I don't name mine but no one is allowed to kill or get rid of them unless they are freaking out then I put them outside

They are good because they eat the flies!

Also I think they are beautiful
