Upside Down Stretch - _TNY_2133

Back in early April (of 2023), I found two blunt stretch spiders (Tetragnatha obtusa) in the veranda ceiling of my mom's summer house. One of them had a larvae of a parasitic wasp on it, but this one didn't.

 

A shot of the other spider can be found here: www.flickr.com/photos/tinyturtle/52806686416/

 

Remember how I said I shot this on the ceiling of the veranda? This meant that I had to stand on a (slightly too tall) stool and shoot this with the camera upside down (using my left pinky to push the shutter release). My mom took a photo of me looking extrmely elegant (or not) here: www.flickr.com/photos/tinyturtle/52806686381/
