our latest shrub resident

by | Aug 10, 2006 | Garden

This funnel web weaver has a wonderful spot right by the grill… and as long as she’s outside, it’s fine with me. She has a leg span of about 3 inches and was very tricky to photograph because she darts back into the protected funnel part of the web if we get too close.

In other garden news, I had to hack off the tops of both tomato plants this morning as they are growing waaaay over the top of their 6 foot stakes. Hopefully this will encourage more fruit!
