Itsy bitsy spiders

Itsy bitsy spiders
EEEK!!! Like most people, I used to hate spiders! That was until I discovered what efficient aphid control agents they are. This year a few spiders have elected to work hard among my tomato plants keeping them pest-free. So now I just leave them alone...

Hérisson de la maison

Hérisson de la maison
J'ai beaucoup de chance d'avoir quelques hérissons dans mon jardin. Ce soir j'ai entendu le bol du chat sur les marches, alors j'ai vite attrapé mon appareil photo ! Pas façile de réussir des photos en basse lumières. Drôle de bêtes plein de piquant et...
