The Web


All a spider wants is connectivity to it’s world!
Notice each leg is hooked into several strands of web.
Anything lands anywhere on the web it will know exactly where
and zeros in quickly to answer the dinner bell.
It is what feeds it.
Helps find it mates.
A place to lay eggs.
Warns it of impending danger!
The web is it’s world!

superbly captured, and the caption illuminates how well tuned in the spider is..

So well described. I confess I never gave the subject any thought. The spider's striving for is what all creatures desire. Good shot, by the way.

Wow John, what a wonderful shot - love the back lighting and bokeh - reminds me of a gymnast on the double bars :) BV
