Spider eating caterpillar, originally uploaded by dhickie.
We like spiders that eat the ‘bad bugs’. Check this one out - he has a dessicated caterpillar carcass in his mandibles, and also he’s a lovely shade of bright green.
We got ourselves a peach tree sometime ago and Danielle decided that she would make fruit trees in an urban area a pet-project of hers.
The tree has suffered a bit of neglect over the past 2 weeks with the birth of Ezequiel and our stay at the Hospital, it has however started yielding some peaches. We even had an “attack” by the palm tree, in which a branch fell on top of our little peach tree and damaged some of the branches and fruits. Our little tree resisted and repelled the attack :-).
We haven’t yet had time to try some of the fruits and I am betting they are delicious. We have been very lucky so far as it has rained quite a lot while we were away, with intermittent periods of sunshine to keep the tree fed properly and the fruit maturing.
