Out the office window
Spider out my office window

My new office is on the second floor overlooking a small strip of trees with rt 120 a block in the distance. It's a sunny spot and a little noisy with highway sounds, but there are lots of nice trails nearby and it's only a mile walk into town. This spider has been working on a web for a few days, a few inches in front of the sliding window pane. Noticing it near completion I thought I'd take a few photos. With the window open there was suddenly a path for the breeze to come into the building, blowing through the spider's nest. It's interesting to see how the spider hunkered down to weather the gust, each leg holding on.

Nearby trails is nice for lunch breaks. Spiders on windows maybe less so.
