A very photogenic spider
Last weekend I had a chance in the morning to get out and take some photos. I found some interesting bugs, some of which I will blog about at later dates. After a bit of time I found an interesting moth on the side of my shed. Perhaps unfairly to the moth, I had an ill feeling about it from growing up in upstate New York where gypsy moths devastated quite a few trees.
Still, I used the opportunity to get a number of shots of it. It clearly was on its last legs as it was no longer able to fly – just crawl around. I debated a bit about what to do with it when I noticed a spider web with on orb weaver spider next to our house. Naturally, you can guess what my idea was.
