Monday Photo Shoot

As Requested, from By the Way:

Your Monday Photo Shoot: Critters!

Early fall seems like a good time to capture these guys in pictures, because they're out and about storing up for the winter:

Your Monday Photo Shoot: Catch a critter in a picture! For the purposes of this photo shoot, a "critter" is a creature that is not a pet, so no dogs or cats, but mice, squirrels, pigeons, badgers, hedgehogs, wolverines, deer, dragons, sasquatch or any other sort of ambulatory thing is acceptable (as are bugs).

What you see in that picture is a lovely spider that we nearly stumbled upon (literally!) while fishing this weekend. Fantastic looking and scary, if you ask me!

After some questions, and a little research, I believe this spider to be: Araneus marmoreus
