*Thekla* ;-))

This Thekla has been living in front of my kitchen window all summer long. I watched her grow and saw how she kept getting bigger and fatter. My husband and I think she is a real beauty.

Best regards, Inge

Huh, I’m not a fan of spiders. They’re kind of creepy, and I’m glad I don’t run into them. But your Thekla looks really pretty. Maybe she’s a special kind of spider.

@ Petra, that’s a garden cross spider, harmless and beautiful.

Best regards, Inge

Dear Inge, your Thekla is very pretty.😁

I like spiders, and orb-weavers don’t come into the apartment either. If you ever do see one inside, it’s just lost its way and should be taken back outside. I always take spiders back outside—I never kill any. 🕷️
