Morning Wonder.

This morning, I stumbled upon a fascinating sight in my backyard. I was out to get some vegetables when I noticed an intricately woven spider web hanging above an okra plant.

The web, the shape of letter X with a fluffy white substance at its center was a marvel to behold.

Taking a closer look, I saw the spider, still busy with crafting this masterpiece and I couldn't help but wonder how long it took to create such a fine work of art.

As I gazed at the web, I found myself pondering the absurd - "But how did the spider know about the letter X? "Could it be that these creepy creatures were secretly literate?" I asked. 😂 Well, with nature, everything is possible.

"Such morning wonder needs to be captured in camera", I said to myself. So I hurried back inside to pick up my phone. Coming back, I took the first snapshot.

Zooming, I took another shot, capturing the spider at work.

Noticing my presence, the spider scurried away to safety among the okra plant leaves, but I managed to capture it, as you can see in the images below.

I took another shot of the web.

After that, I went ahead to gather the vegetables, still marveling at the spider's ingenuity and how these tiny creatures can create such wonders.
