Autumn

The young cuckoos have now left the back yard and are headed north for PNG or Indonesia so I suppose that means that Summer is now over. The cooler and drier weather has also seen the spiders disappear. We've not had one at home for a couple of weeks now so I'm feeling much more relaxed.

We've not had a Possum picture for a while

It's a different story up in the Blue Mountains at Emily's folks' place though. Happily the mountain spiders seem to be a lot calmer than their city cousins and tend to sit still for most of the time. If they do decide to move, they just amble away rather than the crazy running and jumping we have to deal with here in town.

That is a good sized huntsman. I hope you didn't hesitate when you strode forward to pick it up and take it outside to safety. The inlaws and little lady would have beenvery impressed.

How big is that thing? It looks massive! I certainly dont miss those beasts running around our house.
