Pointless spider photo of the day:

Another crab spider, yes. The posture's pretty typical, and it's because she saw movement when I aimed the camera on her. Crab spiders are ambush hunters rather than web builders. They'll sit on a leaf or on a flower (or on a rock, if you're judging by this one) with their first couple of pairs of legs outstretched, and when an insect flies close enough it gets grabbed.

Thus endeth the spider moment of the day.

Thus endeth pretty much everything else, too. I've been pretty wordy the past little while (and still managed to say exactly nothing. That, my friends, takes true talent) so I've decided that I'm excused from lengthy blather today.

You're welcome.
