Spider or mite identification

    Hello, I would appreciate if anyone could identify this creature, I have thousands of them all over my back walls and paths. I have a lot of birds nesting in the eaves, and bats in the stonework too. Could they be bird mites? I'm hoping they'll go of their own accord, and not move in!
    Thanks in advance

    Have some in the back garden at times but more often on a shelf beside the back door. I think they are clothes pegs. 😘

    Thanks! I just had a google there and I think you're right. They might be some variation. They seem to be dying so I'll leave them for the birds to eat. Relieved they're not baby tarantulas :D
