Cyclosa caroli This spider collects debris from previous meals, eggsacs, and molts and arranges them in a pattern on the web. This species tends to arrange them in a vertical line. The spider then sits in the center of the line and covers its cephalothorax with its legs to blend in a little better.
This is a little morbid, but it's also pretty neat to see closeup. This Cuban treefrog fell to the patio and died yesterday morning. Fire ants scouted it out quickly and by the time I got home from work around 7, there were barely any pieces of bone left. I found another Cuban treefrog dead on the patio this morning. Maybe it's due to the drought?
