Along came a spider.

This spider was pointed out to me. I *think* the whitish thing is an egg sac or case, but I am unsure. It was kind of cool to see.

Along came a . . .

spider. This one set up shop a while ago on the side of our house, sheltering behind a downspout when necessary.  I think it’s an Araneus nordmanni. We don’t mind it being here. It serves a purpose.

Happy to let it be.

This spider, species unknown, spun its web just off the surface of the siding on the back of the house. I’m happy to let it be.

I captured this spider clinging to the siding weekend before last. A little black thing (no not a black widow!), leg span no more than about half an inch across. Though I was not particularly inspired to post today it was, is, important to keep the habit going.

Though she’s not a big fan of spiders, Faye allowed this little creature to explore her arm the other evening. I think jumping spiders are intriguing and attractive little animals

Along Came A Spider

This fellow (or lady, I am unsure which) has taken up residence inside an empty rain barrel. After about a dozen photos, some with flash, it tired of the attention and climbed its web and hid under the rain barrel lid.
