Preys on insects and spiders. It paralyzes insects, buries them and lays eggs on top of the insect. It becomes food for the young.
The day started off quite nicely but by the time I got around to thinking about a shot for today, it was foul, so looked for an indoor shot. I threaded six different coloured cottons through the needle and twisted them up a bit. Taken in upstairs window where there was a little more light, trees in the background, gold reflector to the front.

Mural entitled "A Persistent Thread" by Jonny Alexander for "Murals in the Market" seen in Detroit, Michigan.
The artist explains the work as follows: This image is a personal interpretation of Detroit, where its been and where it's going. A narrative image you can read from left to right lends reference to Detroit's manufacturing past, it's present growth and it's future yet to be known. There is a banner that weaves its way through the whole image from past to future. It's meant to represent the cultural thread that has run through Detroit, with +80% of Detroit's population being black, I see this legacy as being the lifeblood that gives the city it's culture, vitality and creative energy. The banner serves as a reminder to the changing city to recognize and celebrate its cultural legacy.

I am a threadpainter - and as I cannot blend primaries like paint, I do need many, many colours. There are about 750 here; these are only the regular weight threads. (I have 12 weights, silk ribbon, embroidery flosses, and buckets of yarn.) Half of my threads are greens-yellows. I tend not to stitch into sky or water in my work, so there's not a lot of blues. Most of my threadwork is the 'land'scape, stitched by free machine and freestyle hand embroidery. I'm moving into a bigger studio, and my daughter is anxious to have my old space for herself. It was her idea to sort my threads as a moving day project. : ) www.mysweetprairie.ca

da anni ormai sostengo la mia teoria sul filo invisibile che lega determinate persone.
è difficile per quante cose possano accedere, che questo filo si spezzi…
il pensiero di una l'azione dell'altro o viceversa oppure solamente pensieri che si intrecciano con le nuvole di un cielo che è sempre lo stesso.
Se un capo è teso dall'altra parte si sente…

Under a ragged sky, The Fellsman excursion train of 22nd July has crossed the Pennine Watershed at Aisgill and, on the Yorkshire side, approaches Moorcock Tunnel, after which it will cross into Cumbria for the next several miles to Blea Moor Tunnel and into Yorkshire once more. The engine in charge is Black Five 45231 "Sherwood Forester".
Mrs Nghien started spinning silk at age 20, and retired in 2023 at the age of 96. She was kind enough to set up her tools and show us her skill.
Truc Ninh in Vietnam has a long history of silk production. Renowned for its high-quality silk, the region has a strong tradition of manual silk thread production, passed down through generations. While facing modern challenges, Truc Ninh continues to produce silk, combining traditional methods with modern techniques to sustain this valuable cultural heritage and contribute to the local economy.

The process of making has been good for me. I like putting single elements together into a useful whole.

The Nematocera (thread-horns) are a suborder of elongated flies with thin, segmented antennae and mostly aquatic larvae, consisting of the mosquitoes, crane flies, gnats, black flies, and midges.
Nematocera are typically characterized by filamentous, multisegmented antennae which may be plumose in some males. The Nematocera are a paraphyletic suborder, because one of its constituent families (Anisopodidae) is apparently a sister taxon to the entire suborder Brachycera; an alternative classification has been proposed in which the family Nymphomyiidae (traditionally classified within the Blephariceromorpha) is removed to its own suborder, the Archidiptera, and all the remaining nematoceran families are placed in a suborder called Eudiptera; however, the Eudiptera are also paraphyletic, and this classification has not been widely accepted. Largely due to its long history, the name Nematocera continues to be used.
Examples of the Nematocera include the mosquitoes (Culicidae), crane flies (Tipulidae) and black flies (Simuliidae). Many of the remaining families (especially Mycetophilidae, Anisopodidae, and Sciaridae), are called gnats, while others (especially Chironomidae, Cecidomyiidae, and Ceratopogonidae) are called midges.
The larvae are mostly aquatic and have distinct heads with mouthparts that may be modified for filter feeding. The pupae are orthorrhaphous (meaning adults emerge from the pupa through a straight seam in the pupal cuticle). The bodies and legs of the adults are usually elongate, and these flies often have relatively long abdomens.
Many species form mating swarms of males, and in some of these, competition for females is extreme. Although many species (as larvae) have a strong association with water, even within a single family there may be a trend toward semiaquatic and terrestrial habitats.
