Thursday In the Garden

:::::Meooowwwww:::::

Welcome kitties to our garden this week.

I have some exciting creatures to share with you.

LOOK!!!

Don't it look juicy??

Lots of good noms.

I have to tell you Mom isn't sure what this spider is.
She was kinda afraid it may be a black widow.
It has a warning on it's body.
But it does not have the rounded belly
that pictures Mom saw in Google of Black Widows.
But still this was frightening and it was right outside our catio.
So Mom did what any good Mom would do.
She called Dad.
And Dad sent itsy bitsy spider to OTRB.
Sorry you should have built your house someplace else.

Does anyone have any idea if this was a dangerous spider??
So that was our excitement this week.
(BTW the second spider acted very aggressive the larger one
tried to get away and in doing so freaked Mom out)

  2. We think those spiders are very beautiful. Our mom has a soft spot for them cause they eat bugs and she hates all kinds of bugs.

  8. Oh wow, they are beautiful in a creepy kind of way! We have tons of spiders in our garden this time of year and we never know what kind they are so we are no help at all.

  9. We find spiders amazing...the way they weave their webs. We have lots of spiders around our house...and at this time of year, they like to come inside...much to the mom's dismay.

  11. There are spiders in the Black Widow family that don't have the classic look. I don't know about yours - I'd have my human ID them but she is in the middle of a lecture at a Purina event!

  12. Look at those gorgeous green eyes!!

    I don't like spiders, not at all! Fluffy used to eat them!
    Nyom nyom nyom...
    LOL
    Now I get the Dyson out and suck them up. Other vacuums don't seem to get rid of them. This one does. You can see them clinging on, trying to resist, then THWUMP up the tube they go! HAHAHAHAHA (evil laughter teehee)

  14. We will not get close enough to find out if it's dangerous or not!
    But your garden flowers are pretty,
    especially that orange one that looks like a cat!

  15. Not black widows. We haz da black widows and those beautifully colored spiders you gotz ain't dem. Yours look more like orb weavers to me but since i'm no aracnid-ologist; i can't say for certain. We do love spiders here (cept when they is on the cieling and then that woman goes with a glass & paper & takes dem outside) .

  20. You have beautiful flowers in the garden.
    This spider does not seem juicy but it is very beautiful, very colorful. Our human also prefers us to stay well away from spiders.
