As you know, I really enjoyed Lynne Kelley's Spiders: Learning to Love Them.
I loved it enough that I started looking at spiders and taking pictures. Thing is, I know at least some of you really don't like spiders, and really don't want to have pictures of spiders jumping out at you when you go to check book reviews, and there's no way I know to make them optional.
So, I've gone and started a new blog, just for spiders--especially those in my yard. Head on over and check SpiderWatch. It's going to be pretty busy just at first because I'm introducing all the stars of the show: Big Spider, Milady, Fleck, Cousin Sal, Legs, etc.
Otherwise, probably I'll post once a week for as long as I'm watching, keeping this as my main blog.
Books, bugs, and birds are constant parts of the blog. Gardening shows up a lot, so do books on gardening.

Spiders: Learning to Love Them by Lynne Kelly, currently reading
Just thought I'd share: The batch of book I just picked up from the library includes Spiders: Learning to Love Them by Lynne Kelly, grabbed because I couldn't resist the title or that close-up on the cover (not included in the post because I have at least one arachnophobic friend who dislikes spider pictures).
So far, I've read the introduction which contains the sentence "You don't have to leave the comfort of home to start observing spiders," which is, of course, the problem some people have with them.
I'll let you know how it is.
Edit: Feb 23, 2015. I just noticed that I misspelled Lynne Kelly's name. Oops. Also, there is another Lynne Kelly out there writing books.
