Kyla, what great photos! Were they floating by on their silk strands, or just all over the plants? I've seen the baby spiders doing that before -- but like butterflies and most other bugs, we have very few spiders this year... i think the exceptionally cold winter that we had last year killed off a lot of things here. The good news is I haven't had to deal with walking face-first into spider webs in the garden for a change!

Jennifer, I'm glad the bite healed up promptly for you! One of our relatives was recently bitten by a brown recluse spider in Florida and had quite a nasty reaction to it.
