Spider Webs

Sometime since probably the start of August, the number of spiders that have built webs has increased astronomically. There are spider webs attached to everything. If you take a walk around the arboretum right now you are probably going to have a spider web attached to you at some point. While on a walk, I usually have at least one or two spiders that will start repelling off the brim of my hat that I will have to move to a plant along the path. As you can see, spiders build many different types of webs. They are truly amazing creatures.

Bird nests:
Many birds will collect and use spider webs to build their nests.
