I started thinking I should feel sorry every time I accidentally crushed a web but if it only takes an hour, guess I don`t have to feel as bad.

At least a question I`ve been pondering about for 10 years has been answered.

If someone can find it, there is more to the art of spider webs. Some species of spider in the Amazon will sew patterns and designs into the web to make it stand out to some types of flies. That blows my mind even more.

I`ve ran into a web like that in my garden late at night. It`s the most horrifying feeling in the world. Just thinking about it gives me the chills.

i have spiders. whats more interesting is that they do this being basically blind. with exception of the jumping spider even with all their eyes spiders cant see jack. they are for light and dark contrast.
