I saw this beautiful spider web, daintily blowing in the breeze and the spider looking like a tiny trapeze artist in its web. I love watching them do their little magic when they spin their webs.
They have been making their way into the house lately, and I saw this tiny acrobat had made quite a cool little web in my living room. It attached itself to the little Eiffel tower and book case that it sits on. These two spiders have been more productive than I have been these past few days!
Theres a spider outside my kitchen window that I can't bear to move. He's such a hard worker! :)
ReplyDeleteYou can't possibly have been less productive than me. Have hardly moved from the sofa but Team GB needs my support!
ReplyDeleteI have always thought that msr. Eiffel must have studied spiders and their webs more than the rest of his contemporaries. Whenever I think of the "pieces of his that I know (the Eiffel tower, the train station in Budapest, the inside skeleton of our gift from France, the Statue of Liberty), I am reminded of spider webs. I am always blown away by how quickly spiders rebuild their webs after I have inadvertently destroyed them. I can go on a hike down a particular trail, break a web by getting caught in it, and an hour later on my return there is the new web, just waiting for a morsel to get caught in it. They must be thinking : "Oh great, here she comes again."
ReplyDeleteI, too, love the way the spider webs glisten in the sun.
