Don't click the cut if you don't like spiders!!!



Roz showed me that Shelob is alive and well and creating spectacular webs. Charlie (fat, cowardly cat) had better be careful...I think Shelob is up to small birds and squirrels.

Fat, happy spider

I'm no arachniphile, but I appreciate spectacular examples of their species (in the appropriate environment, ie-- not in my house, car, on my person!) Roz has a mostly insecticide-free yard, so when I find interesting insects (and spiders), I'll donate them to her open-yard zoo. Yesterday the newest inductee was a teeny alligator lizard I found in my kitchen. I've never seen one so small! Fence lizards (blue-bellies), yes-- but not alligator lizards. The critter was about the size of a Pacific Slender Salamander (Batrachoseps), if you know what those are. Tiny! Hopefully he will thrive if he avoids Shelob.
