SATURDAY'S SPIDER

Clever things these cameras I couldn't resist seeing what would happen with this spider and it's web. I was a bit disappointed with the original photo but zooming in makes all the difference.

  1. Well captured Joanne. I must confess that I run away from spiders in real life but do appreciate their beautiful webs :)

  2. Thanks Anna
    I was quite tolerant of spiders and insects until of late surprise surprise.
    Ticks are part of the Arachnids family so when 4 years ago I asked GP if my migrating arthralgias could be related to an insect bite and she said no she was technically correct. It took another two years and that was 4 years of ill health for a different GP to diagnose my illness as a result of a tick bite.

  4. Nice pattern on the back. My boys taught me to like spiders, after we read dozens of books about them.

  6. That really is a neat web. I'm always amazed at how intricate they are and some of the strange places they make their webs.

  9. Hi Joanne,

    I agree with what others have said. Your blog is wonderfully creative. I love the beautiful photographs.

    Thank you for commenting on my blog. I'm going to follow up with my doctor about lyme and search for an LLMD here in the states. I very much appreciate you taking the time to read and make the suggestion to follow up on lyme.
