Here are some more creepies from my garden that need to be identified.

A Planthopper or a Snout Bug maybe? 3-5mm long.

A small spider that was on what was possibly the beginnings of a web when I first saw it. About 7-8mm long. It looks like it has had a bit of a rough time as it only has 3 legs left!

A few pretty bugs we've seen during November in Marakele. They were sitting next to a puddle in the road and I could not get out to take better pics.
