Speaking of spiders, this odd little fellow came to visit today. Kinda crab-like in appearance, with long (relatively..) front legs.

This is one of the culprits when you see spider webs seemingly coming from no where floating around. This little guy, when he's ready to go, will arch his little behind up in the air, and let a stream of web shoot up into the breeze, until it catches something, then off he goes. I followed one web string a good 50ft before I lost sight of it.

His body is only about 1/4" long, so he's tiny, but quite fascinating to watch.
Looks like a mini grapple!

I found a few more while deleting files in this HD. The cranes are sandhill types.

Deerslp20200613_085248.jpgThis deer has been sleeping under our back stairs on and off for two years.

ArlyA - Those white squirrels are so strange. We had an all white deer come through once, and have seen some midnight black squirrels.

I see the Turkey's are back, will try to get a picture, but they seem shy right now.

I haven't posted in a while. Been busy building a 200ft long x 3ft high retaining wall and haven't had much time to get out with the camera.

Here are some macro shots I took in my garden the other night.
