#BREAKING: my pet _Larinioides_ orbweaver is almost certainly a juvenile male! The palps are way too bulbous for a female's, I think.

Anyway, here e is chowing down on eir fruit flies.

bricks of clay

But still This Place.

A woven sky. “

Sorry to report that Charlotte has either abandoned her web, been eaten by a crow, or perhaps she tried to eat the wrong bug. I do wonder about that breezy day that littered her web with leaves. Maybe it proved to be too large of a cleanup job. In any case she has disappeared, so we took down the web.

Her orb-weaving cousin Iggy, however, continues trying to build its web in the most inappropriate places, i.e., the front patio entrance.
