Bumblebee, Dragonfly and Spider appear to be my allies this Summer. Blue dragonflies mostly but two weeks ago I was captivated by a red darter! It's interesting how I too have felt pulled to learn more about spiders and I have been doing a deep dive on Spider in myth for a few weeks now (which is how I came across your wonderful posts).

Me too! I’ve had a spider above my desk for the past 2 months. She just lay eggs last week. I am watching the sac with great anticipation.

Whoa, you too? Wonder if there's something bigger going on. Watching spiders with their egg sacs is so beautiful. Tender, really. How they carry the sacs around, fiercely guard them, and even put their own bodies in front of them.

I know! I have quite a relationship with my mama spider. The feelings may be one-sided, but she definitely is at least comfortable with my presence.
