Last week I found an orbiter spider in my garden which was quite fascinating but a spider up close is ugly & creepy. I'm definitely not a fan of spiders but looking at its web made my mind go wild with fasination. I've never looked close at spiders cause they scare me, but I'm glad I looked. The web is so complex & beautiful, yet put together so well. Its just amazing. "The hose has left trickles of water on the strands of web which have fallen into place so interestingly... Such a hideous creature, but this creature can form a web that is so exquisite. " ( Field Notes Day 4)
Another interesting creature I've come acrossed in the garden was a snail. Very slimy & weird creature . During my observing I noticed this snail had laid eggs ! They're like grey tiny balls & are hidden in a damp dark place . so far im really anxious to see if they will hatch with the weather turning cold .

This is exactly how the eggs look but a slightly darker color. They are hidden pretty far back under the tomato plants , which fit the profile of a snail where they live in a moist hidden area.
