I can’t draw, but decided to give it a go anyway.

For the first comic in my life, I think it went pretty well.

    I wonder if spiders put webs in front of windows to catch bugs that fly towards the light, or if they put webs all over a building and we only see the ones near the windows?

    Cute comic!

      I’m petty sure, they place webs wherever people walk.

      Cute comic!

      Thanks, glad you liked it.

          That’s a female Argiope aurantia. Found from Colombia to Canada. Fairly chill, they only bite big animals when hurt, and even then the bite is less concerning than a bee sting. If you’re lucky you might even see a brown egg sac nearby.

          Just don’t grow attached to her to the point that you give her a name, those spiders are short-lived. RIP my pet Argiope argentata Kumoko (;_;)7

            Thank you for your wonderful and informative comment! I went out back to see if she was still there / look for an egg sack, and snuck another pic. She’s quick! Ran up the fence as soon as she saw me!

            RIP Kumoko.

          Oh… I can’t imagine waking into that.

          Beautiful picture by the way

    We had a spider once that, after someone walked through the web one day, started taking its web down every morning and rebuilding it in the evening.

    Edit: I think it was one of these:

      And I hope to learn more, thanks for the kind words

      Whenever I run into a spider web, I like to immediately imagine that I just won a race I didn’t know I was in. It makes me smile and feel less like I want to jump into a fire.
