Arachtober 9

I'm not sure if this exceptionally tiny spider is a spiderling - possibly an orb weaver? Or an adult orb weaver, or a separate species altogether. It ballooned in whilst I was observing a crab spider.

I'll place it in my Araneidae album for now - any ID advice very welcome.

I estimate no bigger than 3 mm in length.

This was attempt N°1 for my photo of the day. Then I remembered that I'd already taken raindrops this month, so went back to the drawing-board.

Much better viewed large.

Thank you for your favourites. :O)

Caleana major

Large Duck Orchid:- it's tiny so the title must be comparative :)

Noticed this tiny wildflower on a brief walk. Less than a millimeter in diameter.

OK I think it's probably a storage shed, but it's cute, isn't it?

And it could be a tiny house, since the size of a tiny house is considered to be 100-400 square feet. 100 feet, the size of a small bedroom......

Tiny fly (~2mm)

Every species has its own a unique wing-structure

With the current popularity of tiny homes, I saw this and thought that the idea was nothing new! I suspect the new ones maybe a little less draughty though!

Nature's beauty comes in all sizes.

I am going to take a Flickr break for a week or so to complete some projects; back soon!

Bakers Hill a tiny horse and his donkey mate.

A tiny Damselfly was seen visiting a water lily at the Huntington Library & Botanical Gardens back in July 2018. We will visit again this weekend and hope to see the Lotus flowers and water lilies. Hit "L" to see the Damselfly a little clearer !

Tiny but Mighty - A good way to describe the personality of the Chestnut-backed Chickadee. A fun bird that I see a lot of but rarely get great photos of. This one was posing up close and I couldn't resist.

Tiny Cottage ❄

Hello everybody. Today I want to show you one more lego winter creation with a cottage. After already making two cottages, it was quite hard to find new techniques, but tried my best to make it as interesting as possible. This time I used a laptop as a roof and the tree is made out of "broken egg" from some Jurassic World sets. You can find a tutorial and more detail photos on my Instagram account: www.instagram.com/balbo._/?hl=de

Tiny flowers

On the tree

Make me feel happy

Ah, they make me feel glee

My apologies to Don Ho in changing up the lyrics to his classic song. This is a close of up the flower clusters on one of the many red tip trees growing in our back yard.

Tiny Eastern Tailed-blue butterfly on some butterfly milkweed. Sorry for the extremely number of photos, haven't been able so access internet to just saving a ton. :) No need to comment. All handheld.

Almost missed seeing this little one. Macro shows it off beautifully. Even the tiniest of moths are beautiful if you take the time to look closely. I was just in the right place at the right time which is how most of my favourite photos come about. 😊

Easily overlooked, they are tiny!

These little blossoms are on a shrub near my parking spot at work.

Growing in the vegetable garden

A Texas Blind Snake, aka Texas Thread Snake (Rena dulcis), SE Arizona. These tiny, harmless snakes - this one was about the thickness of a piece of angel hair pasta - usually live underground eating termites & ants. A study of Eastern Screech Owls back in the late 1980s showed that the owls, which usually only bring dead prey to their chicks, bring these snakes back alive. Some get eaten, but others burrow into the nest and dine on parasites living there. Owl chicks in nests with blind/thread snakes were healthier, more likely to survive, and gained weight faster than those without snakes in residence.

Tiny lives. A small insect (~5mm) captured in a spider web.

Life fraught with danger at all levels.
