Are the spider's vericose veins from pregnancy?

Brisvegas, Australia(Zone 12b)

They are it`s camouflage .
I`ll try to find a link to the whole story.
They are sneaky little girls.
They make a big Spit ball , yuck.
And attaches it to a thread , When a moth fly’s by .
She throws the sticky ball at the moth and reals it in like on a fishing line .
How cool is that ?

You need skunks down there. I'm so used to them that unless they are really fresh they don't bother me.

Brisvegas, Australia(Zone 12b)

That does not help me identify my intruder ?

KC Metro area, MO(Zone 6a)

I have no clue. Does it?

Brisvegas, Australia(Zone 12b)

Does it What ???

Brisvegas, Australia(Zone 12b)

Does it Pee in the Garden ?
Yes it does .


Did you know If you don’t drink you don’t pee .
And if you don’t Pee you Die .
An old Prophet told me that atop our highest mountain here in Queensland .
I was suffering from altitude sickness at the time

I finally had time to dig a "little". So, they are "Little Penguins". It says that they like to nest in rock caves or burrows. Maybe under somebody's house?
