With the relatively cool and wet beginning to the summer here, we had a great year for spiders at the Armadillo Ranch. Plenty of bugs to feed them. Here is a plump garden spider hanging outside the screen porch.
This fellow was parked on the screen outside while I took its picture from the inside.
Because of the bumper crop of spiders, the wasps had banner year as well. Here an over eager spider wasp caught him a big one.
