I went to the barn this morning planning to move the fence and open up the next paddock. It seemed a dramatic scene.

It was foggy, but was most obvious was the dew on the spiderwebs.

The spiderwebs seemed to be everywhere, especially obvious on the net fence.



The dew makes the webs much ore obvious.

This is only dew, no webs.

Later in the day the fog burned off and the dew was gone.

Here are the spiders that are responsible for what looks like webs. However they are not the typical web.

If you look up “spiders ballooning” you’ll find out that baby spiders will produce a strand or two of silk and be carried away by the wind. The net fence and the pasture plants easily catch those silk strands. So I don’t know how far those spiders have dispersed. Didi they start out here or elsewhere?
