Can you see, what we saw?
Out and about for a walk in the unusual warm weather, with my wife, and we came across this.
Took a picture and thought it would be interesting to see if you can spot what we saw?!
Actual picture size is 2048x1536.
So, you may need to download it and enlarge!

I saw one of those at my Mum's on Monday - between the patio table and the fence :D
Re: Can you see, what we saw?
What really caught our attentions was that there's a whole row of them!
Re: Can you see, what we saw?
not so easy to see that.. and not so often seen - must be the weather..

You guys talking about the spider? We get lots of those here. Over night they spin their webs everywhere this time of year. They are creepy little creatures! I always hate it when you don't see the web until its too late, then there is that frantic feeling of wondering where the spider is!
Re: Can you see, what we saw?
It is unusual to see several in a row like that. Although it probably is better for ensuring capturing more prey. ;)
Re: Can you see, what we saw?
depends on the species, but a lot of spiders are not adverse to eating each other - with this species maybe not :D

Beautiful weather this morning again.
So, it was an opportunity to go for another walk.
Went back to 'Spider Avenue' again to see developments.
Main reason was that yesterday, one spider was in the very early process of making it's web.
Wish we had had the time to stay and watch or take some time-lapse photography.
But, sadly we didn't.
However, we were curious to see what had developed.
The attached picture shows that the spider completed it's web.
The strand at the top (most of which is not in the picture) is at least 5 feet long.
Makes you wonder how that feat was achieved in the first place?!

Spiders? You missed that 3 carat diamond at lower left!!!!
Re: Can you see, what we saw?
I kept looking and couldn't see any spiders or anything until I downloaded the photo and enlarged it that way. Just as well I didn't since I am terrified of spiders. Then you posted your next photo with the web (finished?) :thanks Thanks Rik :thanks, will I have to post a snake to get you back.
