Bashed/washed into submission
A cold wet spring has followed a cold wet winter which followed a cold wet summer. The ground is sodden and prone to easy flooding with any additional rain. Above ground this daffodil leaf, like many of the few plants which have made any attempt at coming into leaf, has been bashed beyond horizontal by yet another night of torrential rain.

False widow spider
This is a female false widow spider (Steatoda grossa). It is mildly poisonous and occasionally found in gardens in the area but unlikely to cause any great damage to most people. This one was far more interested in hiding from the photographer than in any form of attack.
