spider web mystery
i've only seen this phenomenon once. an entire field covered in spiders webs.
the sun was at a very low angle in the sky and in this position reflected off masses upon masses of spiders web. had the sun not been as it was i would not have noticed. how do the spiders manage to cover such a big area in this way. are there millions of tiny spiders spinning ( of which i could'nt spot any) , or is there something more sinister afoot...... say a spider of ginormous proportions that nobody has every seen!!! seriously though i've not got a clue how this is done over such a large area.
the person in the photo, walking away from me, is my yougest son. you can see all the web blanket to his right.
incidentally, the field was not covered in individual webs, it was one mass.
any thoughts??
