A Modest Fixer-Upper

We had a little moisture move into the area over night. The air is cool and fresh and the dampness calmed the fire danger a bit. The calmness may only last a day or two but it allows us back into the woods for some more clean-up.

During one of my many breaks during the work day I noticed a habitat that was in need of a little work. Just above my head was a web lit by sunlight streaming through the trees.

It appears to have had some damage. I suspect that a fortuitous meal had managed to get stuck in the middle and the spider hauled it away to the pantry.

New webbing had been started to fix the gaping hole, but the slender tendrils are so delicate that I could not capture them with my little point-and-shoot. Looks like this humble abode will be back to good in short order.
