Wow. That is dedication to the preservation of nature I am usually unaware of spider webs until I've walked through one and am wearing it like a mask.lomond wrote: ↑October 11th, 2018, 12:34 pm
I am amazed at Fabre's observation skills. To sit in the sun for a couple of hours and watch a spider build its web...I do not think I would have the patience to do that.
Once, when I was hiking, I came across this beautiful spider web approaching two feet in diameter and glistening in the morning sun. It was across the trail and, not having the heart to destroy such a work of art, I carefully unhooked the two main "support cables" on one side and swung the web like a gate to one side of the trail and reattached the cables. It was the highlight of my day of hiking.

I agree on Fabre's patience and dedication though.

Thanks! These are in the MW now.
Almost finished! I've contacted the last two readers we're waiting on. If I don't hear back by Sunday, those sections will become orphaned.
