The spiderlings I saw yesterday turned out to be Cross Spiders AKA Garden Spiders (Araneus Diadematus) and scientists think that they cluster in response to humidity - a single drop of water could be a fatal trap to a tiny spiderling.
Today Wild Geranium is in flower as is Red Clover and White Clover and a Milbert's Tortoiseshell butterfly flitted and zigzagged over the meadow as if its energy was absolutely boundless.
