An astonishing count of 43 Nigma walckenaeri this afternoon from this ivy growing along this wall in Swindon Wiltshire.
It stretched for about 100 metres long and we counted only what we could see up to head height. Lots of empty webs too. @britishspiders.bsky.social #spiders #Irecord

Cetraria sepincola near Finzean (Aberdeenshire), one of the species that has its main distribution in and around the #Cairngorms.
