one species a day

One species each day (from my backyard)

I left it too late again. The weather was overcast but mild in the morning, but cold, wet and windy by the time I realised I still had to take my daily shot, so I looked for something that escaped the bad weather and got into the house. There wasn't much except for this Pholcus phalanchioides. It didn't really escape the bad weather, they're always living inside, no matter how nice the weather is outside. Even though I was standing on a chair, I couldn't get close enough because it was too high up near the ceiling, so I had to crop quite heavily to show it's face. I don't know what it's doing, probably having dinner, or did it moult just recently?
