Life On and Off an Acreage

In-sights into moving from an Acreage back to Town, plus a few things I find of interest.

Two things that horses are scared about:


1. Things that move
2. Things that don't move




Old enough to be eccentric, but not rich enough

Little Friends

I was cutting some brush when I spotted this little fellow busily spinning a web.She, and I say she, because she looks very, very pregnant did not take much notice of me.

 I guess the lens got a little too close at this point  as she bunched up and froze.

 Also she got a little shy at times, or maybe the anchor point had to go on the other side.
 The butt end view leaves something to be desired.
 You can see 6 of the eight eyes on this view, and the web.

 Up and down she went for about 15 minutes. I enjoyed the rest from chain sawing.

 OK, OK, Get that lens out of my space. You have been warned!
 That's better, now how about you getting back to work!

    Nice photos - although I'm not a fan of spiders!
