I called my husband out onto the porch of our new house one evening this week to see this amazing creation: a spider had built a stunning web in between a post and a bush. And he was posing beautifully right in the middle of his work of art.
It may not be exactly what we would normally think of as a labor of love, but I appreciated his efforts, which seemed to me both practical and beautiful.

That is both terrifying and beautiful. I’m not a huge fan of spiders, but their art is so breathtaking. I mean, what other animal makes art to capture their food?

Amazingly beautiful 🙂 It’s like the spider is guarding it as well 🙂

You’re right Mei-Mei, the webs of spiders are amazing labors of love. Here in South Carolina we have a huge version we call a banana spider. They make gigantic webs in the fall, which are fortunately in the woods for the most part. They are fascinating but I’m a bit unnerved by their size and avoid them as much as possible ! Excellent choice for the challenge

Why is something so small and harmless (to humans anyway) so scary? From what I’ve read on the topic, insects are dangerous because many people confuse disgust with fear.
