funnel web

the spider is a funnel weaver, not the deadly funnel web spider - confusing much? yep funnel weavers build funnel webs, but are not funnel webs...
these grass spiders build amazing webs that form a funnel and they can hide down underneath.

Such an interesting shot, never heard of these before.

[Christina]

I had not heard of the difference before - so interesting

[Kartia]

Confusing much? - little bit, think I’d rather these than the Funnel webs here though!

[Denise Wood]

Fascinating :)

[Babs]

Wow this one looks amazing.

[Mags]

An interesting kind of web! We get a few of those here and silk is so soft.

[Steve Chappell]

Nice

[Beryl Lloyd]

Interesting web - so dense in form - I would not like to be trapped in this !

[Michelle]

Interesting I hadn't realised there were different ones!

[Christine Sztukowski]

Nice tones

[KoalaGardens🐨]

@beryl no fear for us - that little hole is a few mm across and the whole web a few inches ... phew
@marlboromaam I can see literally hundreds some mornings, they look incredibly soft, if a breeze starts they ripple

[Mags]

@koalagardens Exactly! You know them well.

[Shutterbug]

Confusing alright, but the capture is beautiful.

[Zilli]

Interesting! Such a great capture, as are all the webs in the series.
