As you will see in this post, I like spiders. Unlike the box elder (sp?) bugs that crawl around on the front of our house when it’s warm, they serve a purpose I can see. The first pic is one of my favorites because of the snack that awaits in the web.
In the house there is no room for spiders (I am the exterminator), but outside I don’t bother them. I just like to watch them work.

The last pic is my favorite, highlighting all the work a spider goes through to build a web. The close-ups remind me of photos in Seymour Simon books, a well regarded science writer for elementary-age children. Bet Lisa has heard of him.
