    Wow!! Those are spectacular. I hope you don't mind Sara - I tweaked them just a bit.

    Stunning photographs! Thank you, Sara. And what a talented spider!

    Wow, what an amazing web! There's more than one, isn't there?

    If you do not like to look at spiders....close this thread now!

    This type of spider - which comes out in the fall - does not appear during the day. They climb up to the top and then slide back down at night. I got a closeup of this right after we moved here. A spider had a web on the outside of the kitchen window and I could watch it come down at night. They do make incredible, huge, gorgeous webs. Walking into one is an unpleasant experience - for me anyway!


    One time a spider had built her web right outside the door where I go at night to take out the cat litter. I took a photo of her. I think I have posted this before but... there is Charlotte's great aunt...Charlotta...


























    And Betty....what is your magic that made my photos so much better????
