Just been for a stroll with the dog, we've come back covered in spiders, the whole field is covered in web, and trailing web from every tree and free floating too. Only had the camera on the phone, but here it is.

These seem to be critters involved:

About 3mm head and body length, maybe 6mm across legs when walking. They're all down my neck now, wiggling and jiggling and tickling. What are they all going to eat? Don't say me!

Defo false widow, better close all schools in a 10 mile radius just to be safe

Had to stare at that photo for ages before the UFO/paper plane turned into the roof of a house

That field looks like it came alive under your feet
