It must be a south coast invasion Brian we're doomed

Thanks Brian, it's my window ceil bouncing the light.

Superb shots Alby.

I did think about taking some pics, only momentarily lol. I came in and shut the doors instead

I quite expected to see the birds have a field day when they started to fly, but they didnt seem interested. There was only a flush of excitement from the Swifts. Dont birds particularly like them do you know?

set there Alby ,all my ants are feeding the 400 spider's i have

No its not just the south coast - they were trying here yesterday in the north west - i think it was just a trial run though as i only saw a few - so be prepared ...

Haha I think indoors was possible the best place Linda. Lots of swifts and seagulls having a good old feed here, looks like rain soon so it may well put a stop to it all.

Spiders? garden or Theraphosidae as I use to keep spiders a few years ago now.

Oh not keeping and breeding tarantulas then. I had about 600 tarantula babies to care for at one point, nearly drove me to despair

Thanks Eccles, it's been really hot and sunny pretty much all day but have heard a fair bit of thunder in the distance.

#2 is very well exposed, tricky subject. There is a swarm in the road outside my house but it was too late to bother shooting.

Thanks RM, I'm sure I haven't seen the end of these just yet.

Good series - like #1 best - we had the invasion here too - I only tried a couple of shots then went inside - they make you feel so itchy (psychological I think!)
