I don't have a guess for the species, but this was a cute little jumping spider on a tree out back who kept hiding from my camera 🕷️👀

There's nothing particularly special about this photo, except that it's from the creek a short walk behind my home 😊

I love my little corner of the world 💚🤍💙

The view from the Kloshe Nanitch lookout on a bright afternoon in early autumn. Looks warm and still, but it was windy and cold 🌬️🥶

Couldn't pass this skeleton of a tree without stopping for a souvenir 🩻🌳

Here's that *Araneus diadematus* (https://w.wiki/NjG) specimen on a different day, still hanging around the back of the woodshed, still without a proper web. This went on for more than a week before she finally disappeared.

*Araneus diadematus* (https://w.wiki/NjG) are everywhere here in autumn, but this particular specimen had the most pronounced abdomen I've ever seen in this species. She hung about the side of the woodshed for days, barely moving and without building a proper web. Very odd 🤔
