Awesome !!!! What were your settings to capture these shots ?

Thanks very much Rob, Margus & Frayne

Frayne, these were taken at 1/200, f22, ISO100 with flash. I was testing a new flash set up at the time... Generally I am using something closer to f11. If you click on the photo it will take you to the Flickr post which shows the EXIF

Thanks EKOEPP and Brian. It was quite timid and retreated into it's web-house it had built by folding under the leaf it was perched on. It must have moved on since then as my subsequent checks have turned up nothing
