    Perhaps this spider should borrow a vacuum cleaner?

    This is a hand held well supported super macro of a spiders web that fits into a 1.5 Cm. gap between two posts in our bamboo fence. I think he or she has a real dust bunny problem

    This is far to dark for me to be able to see anything.

    We have a couple of spider species like that here. They spin fairly wide funnel shaped webs and just throw all the remains of their last meal out of the door!

    Not sure if it is being untidy or whether the remnants actually attract the next victim.

    Admittedly it is dark but the web is brightish white and the messy stuff even has some bright yellow in it.

    They are either very cunning or my many removed cousins.
