Door spiders

This is what I almost walked into at my front door when I went to check the mail.

Two spiders on their webs in the front door

The lower one was the one that startled me first.

Grabbed my camera to take some pictures, and when I backed up for a slightly longer shot, I noticed the second one higher up. Here it is from outside.

The bottom spider’s web spans pretty much the whole doorway.

Here they are in their zoomed in extreme close up glory (click on the image for an even bigger version).

I’m thinking maybe I should start leaving the front door light on to attract some nice juicy bugs for them at night.

I guess that’s what you get when you don’t use the front door. On the plus side, I bet it makes a great deterrent against random people wanting to knock on the door.
