Spiders! :)
I don't have a problem with them - except in the garage, where I use "exterminator" candles to stop the place being festooned with with webs.

OTOH SWMBO DOES have a problem with ANY spiders in the house :)

Yep. Green Woodpecker.

We have a couple near us, but they tend to be very skittish, so you did very well to get a decent pic. :)

Just found a pic of a female green woodpecker that matches. I was thrown by most of the pictures of green woodpeckers having a black face.

That might be a large, or possibly giant sloth (judging by the fox in front of it)

Ah, Yewbarrow. Magnificent walk up and along, with a rather exhilarating descent at the far end!

Seen at a client's house yesterday (just where I needed to inspect some cable into the property)

There was also a much larger one under the eaves that scuttled away into the darkness.

@Channel Hopper

Please DON'T bring anything like that with you if you ever come over here again - SWMBO would have "big" fit :D

It's definitely warmer than last January, this was munching away on the neighbours plants at the weekend.
