*Guardian

Sweet photos of garden helpers! Beautiful new growth, too.

Great shot of your helpers.

Your roses look nice and healthy

A funny surprise- looks like those angels have their work cut out.

Your ladybugs are more angelic to work around than Catface, the guardian of my back flower bed . For a few weeks it has set up shop right where I need to weed and edge the lawn. I try to maintain a few feet of distance but sometimes forget - EEEEK !

Oh wow yes Catface doesn’t look nearly as inviting 😂

What kind of spider is Catface? It is gorgeous 🥰

My Halloween decorations aka garden helpers aka orb spiders look scary but are harmless to us.

Librarian, that's quite a photo !

A neighbor was hanging phony spider web decorations on her house and I offered Catface. She said she had her own.

Thanks for the link. Orb weavers are just so cool looking and varied too!
