It has been eons since I wrote my last blog. Yesterday I saw something in our garden that I think worths sharing. It was a colourful spider - the cobweb was even more fascinating. It had white zigzag marks at the diagonals. A picture says more than a thousand words (unless it is a poem of course) - so here is the picture.

I do not understand why some people hate squirrels. We have plenty of tiny squirrels in our garden. They are very timid and feed on fruits and termites. They clean themselves very often. They are playful and often hang around in pairs. Although I am no Gussie Fink Nottle (Wodehouse readers know what I am talking about), but I think they are fun to watch. Here is a little member from our garden.
