I love taking candids of people on beaches, even though I seem like a creeper sometimes. Haha. But I love this shot.

I believe this spider could be within genus Tetragnatha, known commonly as stretch spiders for obvious reasons.

Tetragnatha are long-jawed orb weavers, having elongated bodies, legs and chelicerae.

Body length 10 mm.

A Great Horned Owl on a saguaro cactus in what is called a 'warble', stretching its wings to vertical as it gets loose and ready for the evening's flights.

Yesterday morning was surprisingly foggy. I love foggy mornings so I ran out with the camera to try and get some pictures before church.

I was surprised to find spider webs at the base of the tree in the front yard, covered in drops from the fog. I decided to see what I could make of it.

I don't know what kind of spider this is, but they usually keep their legs tight to their body and flatten right up tight to the web. In my other shots it's kind of hard to see her much at all. But this time she decided to stretch at just the right moment.

For Macro Monday - All Natural (or something like that.) Have a good week.

I'm still using a torn apart Barber Shop for these shots :-) The Barber is getting very annoyed at me as are his customers who desperately want a haircut :-)
