I went out to the garden to look for something FRESH for this weeks photo challenge and came across this tiny spider in a big web between the grapevine and lemon tree. I don’t usually see these gals until October when they are as big as my thumb. It’s a treat to find the young ones so small FRESH!

Those grapes sure look good enough to eat…heavens, and not spiders!!! Eek! 😄

The grapes have a way to go they have to turn dark purple. My first crop in the 30 years at this house. Hmmm. I’ll give you a heads up when I post portaits next time 😉

Spiders . . . NO. Grapes YES!! Love them. Wish I could grow them but I think it’s too hot and dry here. I see some growing now and then though.

As I told Sunshine, above, this is the first real crop of grapes in the whole time we have lived here. Maybe it was the heat wave last month. I hope the squirrel doesn’t get them.
You get freezes that’s what does in your grape crop. When we lived on South 13th I remember a grape vine behind the garage.

I love spiders, especially writing spiders. I’ve been watching one on my deck grow over the last couple of weeks.

Spiders have always fascinated me. They are such amazing creatures. I had the privilege os seeing some hatch many years ago – it was an experience of joy!

I saw these gals egg sacks earlier this year, now I’m enjoying their childhood. I’m just amazed how big a web they create. Check out the comment above for pictures of writing spiders.
