Welcome to the yard on the left. A place to contemplate, relax, and rant on the right.

The (not so) Itsy Bitsy Spider

Just when you think you've seen all the critters living in your corner of the world, a new one pops up. This young lady is the Black and Yellow Argiope (Argiope aurantia.) She's spun a web on the Day Lily (Hemerocallis.)

She's non-poisonous, and is easy to identify because of the zig-zag pattern spun into her web. It's not a web of deceit like we've seen in Washington under the name of "Executive Privilege."
