Morning Wonder.

avatar

This morning, I stumbled upon a fascinating sight in my backyard. I was out to get some vegetables when I noticed an intricately woven spider web hanging above an okra plant.

The web, the shape of letter X with a fluffy white substance at its center was a marvel to behold.

Taking a closer look, I saw the spider, still busy with crafting this masterpiece and I couldn't help but wonder how long it took to create such a fine work of art.

As I gazed at the web, I found myself pondering the absurd - "But how did the spider know about the letter X? "Could it be that these creepy creatures were secretly literate?" I asked. 😂 Well, with nature, everything is possible.

"Such morning wonder needs to be captured in camera", I said to myself. So I hurried back inside to pick up my phone. Coming back, I took the first snapshot.

Zooming, I took another shot, capturing the spider at work.

Noticing my presence, the spider scurried away to safety among the okra plant leaves, but I managed to capture it, as you can see in the images below.

I took another shot of the web.

After that, I went ahead to gather the vegetables, still marveling at the spider's ingenuity and how these tiny creatures can create such wonders.

Hope you like the photos?

Spiders are one very creative animals.

I love watching them catch flies and mosquitoes in their webs.

You can say that again.
Many of these insects have been caught up in the spider's web.
