I was at #RSPB Baron's Haugh just before dawn and was lucky to snap this kingfisher (Alcedo atthis) while it caught breakfast in the Clyde.

These charismatic, tiny spiders and are not native to the UK, but were apparently first recorded here in the 1930s. Being used to warmer and drier climes, they're most often found indoors around windows.
