'Tis the season! As the days get shorter and nights get longer, the garden spider spins its web at night giving it more time to build a larger web during the fall months.
Need to clear your head? Get moving? May I suggest a fog walk? We live in a river valley town known for its spectacular fog walks, an early morning magic time that illuminates the webs in dewy mist...
Orb-weavers (like Charlotte of Charlotte's Web) take down their webs each day. A large web that stops you in your tracks at 8 am may be completely taken down by 10am.
So early morning is the best time to catch the lovely work of Grandmother Spider, that weaver of stories to keep us warm and wondering through the winter! Happy fog walking!
Walking in the fog. One must rise very early to do that or perhaps at night.
ReplyDeleteWhen the sun is coming up or going down are best times for spotting the webs!
