Before the flies, I found this thing on the side of a plastic storage box which then flew onto our fence. I had to use all 3 ext. tubes to get anything useful as it was tiny.

#1 Get a load o' ma tentacles - Looks like some kind of moth

#3 One of those typical flies. We see lots of these but they're fun to photograph as they're bold enough to stay there.

Nice set, you are right about the moth, it is a micro moth called Caloptila rufipenella.

Thank you all for your kind comments. Yup, I found out about the micro moth a little earlier as well. Quite a pleasant little creature.

Hehe, I hate spiders too but with a camera and lens in between it and me, I'm alright.. heh.
