Found these in my backyard today. Not sure what kind of spiders these are. They could be Wolf spiders.

[Madeliaette]

[Lupine]

Funnel web spiders maybe?

[RJDiogenes]

I suspect that they are not of this Earth. But then, I always suspect that....

I went for a little trek to St Moritz this morning:



I saw some Canadian Geese (I think ) and their babies, and they let me get to within about four feet of them.



I also got lucky with this video. I wish I could have gotten it started about two seconds sooner, but still pretty cool.
