Watered all my plants today and did the much needed dead heading . . . there's a lot of weeding to do too. The hubs pointed out the black widow spider he's been trying to kill . . . seems at least two have been spotted. Their webs look like they're on drugs . . . very irregular. You can kind of see it in the photo . . . glistening with the spider spray. Guess I won't be weeding without my garden gloves from now on!
Also found this critter on the dill plant. Can't say I've ever seen a caterpillar quite like this.
Home with my lighted magnifier, I can now start stitching the Mount Vernon piece . . . there just wasn't enough light at my brother's house. All I got accomplished there were a few crocheted dish cloths. The Mount Vernon piece will be a good project to work on while I watch The Bachelorette tonight! Who will she pick???

I don't like spiders, especially nasty poisonous ones.
ReplyDeleteHi Bonny! If I'm not mistaken, that caterpillar will turn into a black swallowtail butterfly! They are all over our dill and parsley in the garden.
