Pic of the day 4 February 2008

I saw this spider creating this amazing web
as I hung clothes on the line last night.
While I was trying to get a good shot
it caught a little moth and
wrapped it up in the silk,
destroying all of its beautiful work.

I also happened upon this blog last night:

It's sad but touching at the same time,
but I couldn't stop reading the entries.
(I'm sure, as pet owners, we've all been there a time or two.)

Pretty sad stuff...
