CW: Spider, being a spider
Heyo friends, I met a #spider!
At one point I brought the camera too close and alarmed the poor thing, but it chilled out again after I backed off. Wild to me how spikey their legs are.

While working in the garden, I lift some leaves and see what looks like a trap spider’s nest. It occurs to me to use a smartphone stethoscope—the kind we use to check pipes and drains—to see if anyone’s home… And sure enough, at the end of the silk-lined tunnel, I see some little legs peeking out. I’m sorry, Ms. Spider, for giving you a scare.
iPhone 17 Pro + stethoscope,
Alicante. Spain.Trabajando en el jardín levanto unas hojas y veo lo que parece el nido de una araña trampera. Se me ocurre usar un estetoscopio para smartphone que usamos para comprobar tuberías y desagües para ver si hay alguien en casa… Y si, al fondo del túnel recubierto de seda veo aparecer unas patitas. Disculpe Señora Araña por el susto.
Als ich im Garten arbeite, hebe ich ein paar Blätter an und entdecke etwas, das wie das Nest einer Fangspinne aussieht. Da kommt mir die Idee, ein Smartphone-Stethoskop zu benutzen, mit dem wir normalerweise Rohre und Abflüsse überprüfen, um zu sehen, ob jemand zu Hause ist … Und tatsächlich, am Ende des mit Seide ausgekleideten Tunnels sehe ich ein paar kleine Beinchen hervorkommen. Entschuldigen Sie bitte, Frau Spinne, dass ich Sie erschreckt habe.

Yesterday after the rain I went out for #Mosstodon #LichenSubscribe tree trunk photos and also encountered some bugs! This is all from a small patch of a quite ordinary Norway maple.

This absolute unit had set up shop right above the back door, I included the recessed ceiling light for scale (the photo still doesn't do it justice, the light is smaller than the spider 😭😭😭)
My husband managed to safely remove it and release it in the backyard in a spot where there should be plenty to eat. I'll bet this guy eats mice. 😩

#Arachnews out of Jutta Schneider's lab: is there a "male self-sacrifice" gene in Australian redbacks (_Latrodectus hasselti_), where males famously somersault into the female's jaws during mating? They crossbred _L. hasselti_ with the closely related New Zealand species _L. katipo_ to find out!
Kardelen Özgün Uludağ, Vladislav Ivanov, Henrik Krehenwinkel, Jutta M. Schneider; Crossing experiments suggest a simple genetic basis of complex male self-sacrifice phenotypes in widow spiders. Biol. Lett. 1 August 2026; 22 (8): 20260211. https://doi.org/10.1098/rsbl.2026.0211 :OpenAccess:

I think you could say I like spiders... I have a fascination with the little creatures that people generally consider pests. I prefer to focus on species local to me. Do you see any you know?
