On this morning walk, the spider web is what caught my eye first. The funnel spider webs were most interesting to me on the thickness and where they put them. I wondered how spiders catch something when some have such visible webs. At least a lot of them are so visible to us. Then I thought a moment and remember how insects sometimes run head first into solid objects. Of course, I often am not looking where I am going and get a face full too. We are not so different from the insects. LOL.
Good thought. I did find another exuvia in the web that was much smaller. The “dead” spider looked like it had meat to it. If the other spider didn’t kill it, maybe fungus or something like that got it??
Your find the critter puzzles are tough and fun. Thanks
I love all the shades of brown from slime moth to owlet moth!
I’m wondering if the dead spider might be a shed skin instead? Very cool finds!

I just love how close up you get with your photos!
