When i went for a walk out in the forest out the back I came across this fellow at about KNEE high in the grasses.... obviously i walked around him and then took his photo.... i was surprised at how large he was. See the weird alien head silhouette on his back. Would love to know the species name. I did notice the distinctive zig zag mark on it's web.... might be a clue.

PROJECT 365 DAY 213 August 3rd


SO this morning just get the day off to a SURREAL beginning...... Dusk decided to FLY INTO JYES WINDOW........! and just for an explanation.... it is on the second story and she has NEVER done anything like that before.....and all our other ducks stay on the ground. Definitely a character.


I should have realized something was going on with her when the day before she perched in a tree... about 18 feet off the ground...... talk about a Pythonesque moment.....  made me think of the skit about that most dangerous of animal..... a clever sheep.
