Magical Argiope Spiders are doing their thing



2012-08-10 - District 4, Adair Co., KY - Photo by Ed Waggener. Those unfamiliar with them are often frightened by them and think they are the most wicked looking spider in the world. To those familiar with them, they are almost cherished members of the family, and their prominence in summer and the fallish days are late summer are celebrated. No where are the spiders so honored as around the Argiope capitol of Adair County, Gradyville, KY, where the perfect complement of the insect eating spiders, is at least one in every window. This one wasn't in the epicenter, but still in District Three, at Flatwoods, where Hoss the big lab holds court when Magistrate Perry Reeder is not present.
