Two spiders out of the dozen or so that were on the fence the other night.
First is a male rabbit hutch spider (Steatoda bipuncta - one of the false widows) and the other two are of a silver-sided sector female (Zygiella x-notata) making herself a meal of a midge.
Following those are couple of a resting chalcid wasp (Chalicidoidea indet).
