A couple of Insects

On our trip away to drop off the Mother Inlaw to her sisters as it could be the last time they will see each other again.
We decided to take our 2 eldest Granddaughters for a week away also.
This only means we had to do a little more and longer stops.

Though I was happy when we stopped at one place and there was this as I hope I worked it out right.
A Wolf Spider and this one was a big bugger, as you could still see it it from the other side of the road.
So there was no need for macro shooting here.

Then we got to day one's stop over and there was this Praying Mantis.
The closer I got to it the more it was trying to reach out to get on the lens, so I had to just keep a little distance.
I am quite happy with the shots of today.

The Wolf Spider, but I don't mind if someone tells me its not one of them.
The other is a Praying Mantis, which I know you all know.
