Today I saw... An unexpected sentinel

This Blip was about 10 cm away from not happening - Mr Spider had stretched his web across the path in front of my house using the gate to suspend it - this was actually his third web of the day because my housemate had already walked through it twice already! You've got to admire the spider's ambition, forget the bugs - go for the humans!

Also to like about this photo: the leaves that make cover the front of the house are just starting to turn for the autuman, this is probably the best mix of colour we'll see in them all year and (if my landlord sells) the last we'll see of them too. Just a shame the rose bush had already been cut back for the winter, really.
