Growing up the only connection I made between autumn and spiders was Halloween and that mainly due to decorations. In England, the spiders are impossible to miss come fall. While out walking at dawn the other day the dew showcased all the webs we might have missed later in the day.
Turning around you can see the little pockets of white webs laying all across the lawn. One young woman who still lives at home is sticking to the concrete til the first hard frost…

The spiderwebs…eek! I would be afraid to walk barefoot on the grass. I have an irrational fear of spiders.
I must confess the Halloween connection with spiderwebs completely escaped me until reading this(I just figured spiders and their webs are naturally spooky!)and then I put the pieces together with what the Orkin man told me last year about September and October being spider season. At the time I just chalked it up to crazy Southern California and our everlasting season of mild-warm weather. Now, I see the connection.
I always love your pictures and blogging.
