Katherine I – Orb Weaver

I shared this on Instagram today, and I’ve talked about Katherine a few times to fellow bloggers. I’m sharing the reel I made because maybe a few of you will be interested in seeing Katherine, an Orb Weaver that took up residence on my front porch a few years ago. She was majestic and fascinating. She laid two egg sacks in the clematis, which I promised her I would move to a safer spot once she was gone. She lived until mid December, which was quite a long time for a spider. I hope you enjoy the video. 🕸️🤍

    1. Thanks, Edward. I promised her I would take care of them. And there’s a poem – something about if I see a spider and go to squash it but don’t, I hope one day someone would have the same mercy on me.
