Thoroughly enjoy these shots. The weevil is especially interesting given the way it's holding onto the twig. Having tried to pose a couple for studio-macro in the past, it's useful to see that's a "natural" stance - and I think it would be far easier to arrange one like that (in future). Very useful to know. Thanks.

Wow, that spider took me a while to figure out!
