It is the joy of
spiders when cobwebs overwhelm
the jungle.
While most people
believe a spider is so creepy, being able to make it looks the other way round
is surely the joy of an old man.
If it happens to turn into a handsome celebrity like a frog into a prince, this is then beyond the simple joy and the simple life of a simple old man.
However, a spider that was seen in last week was still a spider today when I went hiking this morning.
It has somehow spent a week to weave an X. What was then its intention?
It might not be as simple as it could be. Could it mean for Adults Only? A Kiss? X-man....

The X is amazing, and unbelievable! Amazing catch on your part too. You might be thinking you're an old man, but with that pair of eyes, I think you have X rated vision.
Enjoy your weekend!
I am not afraid of spiders, especially yours. I have to say you are be young at heart. I enjoy your simple joys! Cool captures of the web, spider and the X. Have a wonderful day!
Oh now that is one very talented creative spider and I must admit you capturing it is awesome. B
The last one is so fun! An acrobatic spider. :)
i always love your perspective. :)
thank you, rainfield, for being you.
LOL... you crack me up here... x-man!
Wonderful shots. The webs they weave are as interesting as they are.
happy thanksgiving!!
:)
I'm not afraid of spiders, but I do not like cobwebs. I greet warmly.
spiders are still crawlies and crawlies give me the shivers no matter how pretty they are. But I am amazed at Mr spidy's creation of an X. Why, I didn't know spiders are 'artsy' lol..
I love your description of the x spider! We have a spider who does that too...maybe the same?
Your spider looks cute! Unlike mine.
The 'X' made by the spider is amazing. You did a great job of capturing it with your photo. Your macros are fantastic.
Yes, that X marked the spider is unbelievable, and amazing! Fascinating captured!
Always wonderful photography ~ amazing shots ~ fascinating ~ (A Creative Harbor) ^_^
That is really cool! I've never seen a web like that. Let us know if you find out more about it!
X-spider is sending an eXasperating message for the eXtreme noise pollution from the eXplosive clicking of camera

Olá, amigo!
Apesar de assustadora, pois parece venenosa, é colorida e muito bonita.
Nunca tinha visto X em teias de aranhas antes!
Bom fim de semana!

Rainfield, in most of your so called nature hiking cum stories, they sounded rather daunting to your so called old man's life. Sad to hear that, somehow, do enjoy life, yeah!
This is a simple joy. It took me all of my youth to learn not to jump at the sight of a spider. Now I spend my time with spiders getting as close as I can to see their beauty.
amazing "X"!! webs are really a work of art!!
lot's of great detail in these awesome close ups!!
Regardless, dear rainfield, while I can admire the beauty of a web, I want to stay clear of any and all spiders.
this spider definitely has the X factor))))

That is a great web! It probably does mean it's for adults only, but only because children are too young to appreciate this kind of miracle!
(I'm not afraid of spiders especially big beautiful ones like this one...and especially when they're out in the woods, which really belong to them, more than to us!) But I am very very glad that you visited these woods and shared your pictures. Thank you!!!!
Pity the spiders sometimes... think most of them are harmless...
This X is incredible. Even the spider's legs are in the shape of the X....
the X is probably a camouflage, or he's marking his territory?:p
i don't have an idea on the life span of spiders...but weaving an X is perhaps his magnum opus.:p
Great photo!
I think the spider is working for Santa and wants to remind us:
x-mas is comming soon...?
Spinlar that scares the life out of many, weaves such beautiful surfaces, gauzy nets that shimmers in the light gaming. So delicious! / Brita
your gift for paying attention
is amazing
and stirring, friend:)

I'm not scared of spider! This one is really cute!

Beautiful captures! Have a fabulous week.

Oh Wow Lime green fluorescent. Very Attractive.
How fascinating! I have never seen a web like this one before.
Amazing captures!
Cool captures!
Mine's here.
What a beautiful spider, and an interesting web. I'm happy to let the spiders have their way except across trails- first person always clears the webs with his/her face. Very thoughtful.
i agree with Icy, you have an x rated vision. such a surprise for an old man.
great captures, btw. as always...
I think it was painting a self-portrait.
Thank you Hug. B
It's nice to see your post. The last photo is very interesting.
Very cute post--wonder what his intentions were! Thank you so much for visiting my blog regularly and learning a little something about Tucson AZ. I am VERY behind in answering people's comments and I apologize!
He's Mr. X who's 10 years old, who recently moved from Planet X. And now he's weaving an X-shaped xylophone to play the X-citing theme song of X-Men. :D
BTW that spider is a beauty!
