Spiderman Running and Friends

A few photos taken one dull morning in my accommodation in Scotland in June.
 
A spider spinning on a thread for a second looks like a running man carrying some sticks.

Midges that got inside.  Apparently there are at least 10 thousand species of midge.  Which one these are I have no idea.

One of the many species of Crane Fly, or the Daddy Long Legs of my childhood.
