Good morning phantom biologist. How are your bug investigations going lately? I am exploring "being a leaf curling spider" haha
Fortunately I know you know that I am serious 🕷️🕷️
I have been working with AI as a collaborator and have asked it to respond from the perspective of a spider. Unfortunately it gets very muddled on the nuances of the leaf curling spiders. I have many of these inhabitants in my garden and when I go out at night I discover them out at work on their webs.
Given they are a native species and you the local biologist I wonder if you have more to share about these amazing nest builders. Happy to talk human to human if you have time.
Yours in spidery art,
Pattie
Certainly one of my favourites. Here's a video I made about them

And some pictures of one that has made use of a snail shell instead
And one that has used a piece of rubbish with an anti littering message on it. "Give the planet ..."
That's hilarious
I am about to get my iPad out to watch your video. I was out taking morning images of the indigenous beings I am cohabitating with.
Love your video - thanks
The spider on your arm was quite big. Glad you put her home back ❤️
Yes they fix any damage up remarkably quickly. Never get any hint of aggression or threat from them even when I am so rude
More polite than me I'm sure 🕷️❤️
Great project - let me know if there's any other thoughts you'd like on these wonderful arachnida 🤠👍
Thanks Pete
Just got this video of the bee that decided against staying for lunch.
