Little Miss Muffet




Little Miss Muffet sat on a tuffet
eating her curds and whey,
when along came a spider
who sat down beside her
and frightened Miss Muffet away!

Role reversal! As I was snapping a few photos of this big spider I accidentally nudged her web and she was the one frightened away. She hid, ironically enough, under the "welcome friends" sign we have on the back deck.

I wish the camera was able to capture her intricate web, it was huge and perfect. Sadly, the winds of tropical storm Earl demolished it and it appears Ms. Spider has moved on. She was in a great spot, bugs are always flying into that window.

Can I put a request in -- PLEASE no more up close spiders. Almost gave me a heart attack! Shoot.
