I mentioned earlier that there are a lot of spiders around at this time of year. A few days ago when I took the dogs for their morning walk, I saw this:

The neighborhood is getting crowded

The lighting conditions were good to get all three of these spider webs. They were illuminated from behind, so the webs show up well against the darker background of trees in shadow.

If you look carefully you might be able to see all three spiders at work repairing their webs.

One of the amazing things about these spiders is how far they go to support a web. There is one behind our house that has one support strand that stretches about 20 feet to our deck.
