I’m trying to learn my spiders — might this be a wolf spider?
No, Linda, it’s definitely not a wolf spider. It’s an Orb weaver, likely Araneous cavaticus. 🙂
Thank you! Now I’ll look that one up.
I’m curious too about the variety of spider. Excellent photo!
Thanks, and definitely an Orb-weaver, likely Araneous cavaticus. 🙂
YIKES! That did scare me!
Not as much as the mouse that we heard in our attic last night, i hope! Doing something about that now!
So true, Tom. Great shot!
Yes, Sandy, sadly too true, these nutty days! 🙂
I agree. The photograph, the details of the creature, helps me to see it as something unique and beautiful. It’s a stunning photo.
That’s exactly how to see them… for their intrinsic beauty, not with a bunch of erroneous, learned, stupid prejudice! 🙂
You got that comparison perfectly centered in your “lens”!
Cool of the spider to pose for good cause/message.
Yes, Jazz, i’m always very appreciative of the little critters who cooperate with the camera (intruding on their space). 🙂
haha, take care that you don’t get a suspicious parcel, too. Have a nice weekend, kind regards Mitza
Yes, Mitza, those of us who are not brainwashed, crass, and stuck in a mindless confederate conservatism, are getting explosive packages these days! Bombs away in the head-up-its butt U.S.A.! 🙂
Interesting rather than scary.
The spider is beautiful. The politics here in the U.S. is ultra-scary! 🙂
Ain’t that the truth. Great pic
Yes, Francis, i know! 🙂 Thanks and read what i wrote to taphian (Mitza).
Lol 🌸🌿🌸
Amazing Tom, where was the spider? 🙂
Ain’t that the truth!
Great photo, and politically apt comment, as well!
too creepy!! lol
Spiders are not scary at all. Politics are. Even more scary is what we are doing to the planet.
So true, these guys are innocent
Yep, totally agree with you, Tom! It’s unbelievable what is going on here in the US. :_(
