Hi, everyone! Thank you -- yes, this is the perfect flowr for a nightowl, you're right. I'm afraid I'll have to take pictures later, because right now we are in a real deluge of rain. In the radar below, I made a black box just above the B in COLUMBUS. We're just about where the B is. It's been a half hour since that radar shot was taken, so we're really getting the rain now!

Gumlla, the camera I use is a Minolta DiMAGE A1. I posted the shot, along with some comments about brugs (hope I'm right!) and the methodology I used to get the shots, at TrekLens: http://www.treklens.com/gallery/North_America/United_States/...

I've yet to ID the spider. It was very small, just a centimeter or so in diameter. It and its buddy were sure busy, and there were fine webs everywhere around the brug! In one shot, it looked like the spider might be making an egg sac and laying eggs on the underside of the leaf.
