1) The little guy is probably thinking about this, 'Hmm, can I move now? Is she done with taking pic of me? Why is she holding such weird looking thing at me?' Hahahahha..

2)I don't really know that so my answer will be based on my imagination.. Maybe the spider feel safe with cactus?

My 1st time taking part in Thursday Two Questions so hope to see you dropping by my blog too.. See you around!!

Love,
Krislin

The spider webs love to be seen. The cactus plants must be your favorite.

Squirrel: She'd better have food for me if she's going to keep snapping pictures.

Spider webs - because they can...no one is going to bother spiders on a cactus!!

These are fun pictures, Jo.
The squirrel is probably thinking about his next meal, and the web on that cactus is trying to protect the flower that's about to come out..

If that squirrel is on a log pile in some old hunters back yard, then it's thinking, "I hope he doesn't fry me up for supper."

Spiders are predators, and since different insects are drawn to differnt plants, then weaving its web across a plant is a perfect spot for a spider to set up for dinner! =D

The squirrel is most likely thinking about food and protection, a constant in its life. Where I live, there are spider webs everywhere this time of year, especially under the eaves of my roof. The cactus must offer the spider many protective nooks from preditors and bad weather.

The squirrel is wondering if you had a nut to spare for him.

This answer might not be intelligent, since this is the first time the thought ever came to mind...LOL but I think the spiders like the succulent from the cactus plants.

Spiders' webs get everywhere. Our garden is full of them but fortunately all the flying seeds caught in them show where they are so we don't keep walking into them.

1. The squirrel was wondering who was watching who?

2. Spiders weave their webs all over our plants and not just the cactus. But because of dengue, I don't sweep most of them away. They are really such great architects!

Thanks for your egg salad recipe on Cheapskate4Life! I'm going to attempt making it soon - I have never hard boiled eggs before either so we will see how they turn out!

I think the squirrel is trying to find his nuts LOL

1. The squirrel is wondering if you will leave him a goody for posing; maybe a nice peanut?

2. I imagine cacti get insects the Mr. Spider likes. :-)

The squirrel is wondering what bird feeder to raid next.

Spiders aren't picky or prickly when it comes to where they weave their webs.

Funny post! I enjoyed reading everyone's answers!

The squirrel is thinking that he's going to go nuts on any other animal that comes near any food tossed his way.

I don't see many cacti around here, but I'd imagine that they are just great places for spiders to live.

The little squirrel is thinking he'd rather be at your house getting his photo taken that at my house eating peanuts in the cage on the porch.

The cactus? I dunno. Spiders do what spiders will, usually with an eye towards dinner.

It probably thinks that it's a superstar with your camera in hands.

The colors of that cactus are beautiful but I had no idea why there is web on it!

Camera Critters - Feeding My Squirrel Buddy

-
Image
Though we are not suppose to feed the squirrels at the gardens, it is always something I enjoy. After all, they do need "good eats" every once in a while. This particular day I brought honey roasted nuts. There were not as many squirrels around as usual, maybe because of the hot weather. So, when I found this little guy in one of the demonstration gardens I decided to let him have the entire bag. He was a bit afraid of me at first but when I piled the nuts in front of him we became instant friends. He even let me take a short video clip of him which you can see below. He was a cutie.
