Poor misunderstood spiders

I never kill spiders, although I do brush away cobwebs when they become too conspicuous. I wouldn’t kill a non-poisonous snake, either.

I don’t usually think of spiders as being cute, but I make an exception for these spiders with raindrops on their heads.   Spiders don’t actually wear raindrops as hats because the raindrops only stay on their heads for less than a minute.  The photographer had to be quick and alert to catch them.
