Feathered Legged Orbweaver favorited by Ava T-B Palm City, Florida, United States 33 minutes ago

The pics of the spider are not very good . But the web really glowed in the morning sun and had a unique stabilimentum. I've not been able to find any pictures of a stabilimentum exactly like this one. I will call it a spiral, zig zag, discoid stabilimentum. Members of this Family produce a cribellate web. It's not sticky but snags prey with wooly fibers. They also have no venom. They are orb weavers but are not closely related to other orb weavers.

Mediterranean House Gecko favorited by Ava T-B Tallahassee, Florida, United States 34 minutes ago

This young gecko was out during the day. We usually only see them at night. I've seen them eat many moths on our windows. They have displaced the tree frogs that used to feed there.
