Rewilding My Lot

Converting a new developer lot into a nature ecosystem — my journey


Walking Around A Spider Web

There is a Western Spotted Orbweaver (Neoscona oaxacensis) that has built an impressive web spanning from the Red Yucca flower spike to the fence that is eight feet away. I knocked the web loose one time by accident, but it was quickly rebuilt. So now I have learned to walk around it, although I suspect that I will eventually forget that it’s there. Or some other force will knock it down.

The spider spends most of its time hanging out on the Red Yucca. I’ve never actually seen it on the web.

About Me

Nature Lover.
Inquisitive Observer.

I invite you to join me on my journey to convert my sterile (from a nature point of view) new house lot to a healthy and diverse ecosystem, as I make discoveries, mistakes, and hopefully progress. I am not an expert or professional. The project started in February 2023 and the location is Seguin, Texas, USA.
