We have some folks coming up from Ketchikan tomorrow morning for a few days, but I'll try to get something interesting to you.Jeremy Parkernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2743204852429391624.post-5777405036948913362012-09-25T15:44:30.450-07:002012-09-25T15:44:30.450-07:00Hey Jeremy,

If you can't get good telephoto shots, how about sending me some macro photos, plus scenery. I'm always starved for material to put up on the blog, as you can see from the last few posts.johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05008523039059312800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2743204852429391624.post-7977298896345633922012-09-25T07:39:19.119-07:002012-09-25T07:39:19.119-07:00Interesting spider.

It looks similar to the Common Housespider with a different pattern (colors but not pattern of the Western Spotted Orbweaver). <br /><br />I wish we were lucky enough to be limited on that account. All our windowsills have sevral spiders present and active. Our nooks have long-bodied cellar spiders. Our porch area has Millipedes, woodlice, centipedes, slugs. Beachhoppers across the street. Once I even saw a pseudo-scorpion on a stump I had just cut. Let alone the flying insects. <br /><br />We always had a lot of silverfish near Fairbanks.<br /><br />We have had orcas swim by lately, and yesterday a cow moose (very rare for us) decided to swim the narrows only to return again when confronted by spectators, a boat, and sea lions. I can only imagine what was going on under the water. There were three or more sea lions cruising the shore where she hauled out.<br /><br />Our camera is shy on zoom so our pictures require a microscope to examine. Maybe I'll order one today...Jeremy Lofgreen Lee Parkernoreply@blogger.com
