We are starting to see some spiders and big webs as we walk around the swamps. This web was several feet across with the fine gauge threads glistening in the sun.
I changed position but couldn’t closer due an abundance of poison ivy, something else that is thriving this spring.
My next image was just a few seconds later but focused on a slightly different spot which resulted in a different glisten on the web and background.
So lovely and shiny new! I wouldn’t want to walk into one though – ugh!
I Hate That! I’ve been known to walk with a twig in my hand to clear the way if the path is narrow. Or send Ted first!
You’re so practical!
That is one wesome web for such a small spider! Great detail, Ellen!
I wish I had taken a wider shot to show how it was attached to two trees. I was quite taken with the shimmer instead. Thanks, Pete!
