                A calm, sunny, warm day at last, so I went to the local Knapweed patch hoping to find some Painted Ladies and there were dozens of them

                And a big scary spider was trying to catch them

                        Sorry poor photos only had my phone available, just wondering if anyone has any ideas what it is, it was nestling in a canna flower and I didn't want to disturb it, no colour as i could see just various shades of brown, gone through my books twice and still none the wiser. 20190827_192519.jpg 20190827_192426.jpg
