Newest creature visiting the house is a lizard about as long as my thumb, including its tail. It was on the front porch and reluctantly moved away as I came out and closed the door. Eventually, it went over the edge of the step, then under the step, which isn't sealed.
There's a lizard under the porch! It might be the same one that scurried out of the trimmings off a boxwood bush on the driveway last week. Or maybe we have a colony. Lizards are cool.
Update: the G-D spider's dead. Not my fault! A couple of days ago as I left, the spider was hanging about two feet away from the porch, at knee height, waving at me. An hour or so later when I returned, it was still there, hanging, dead.
This morning, I noticed a nest kind of thing in a corner of the outside walls. It's trash now, but what are the odds it was this spider's egg sack?
Ah, Mother Nature ... what a bitch.
