Icicles Bigger Than Bethany!

Saw these icicles in Kanab when I went down to help my dad with his bar-code scanner. There's a lot of icicles in town, but this one gets the gold star! :)


Anyway, I thought it was blog-worthy.

Latex Larry Foiled by Snow!

This just in!

No one is fooled by the fake cop if it looks like he's been sitting in his car for a couple of days watching the snow melt.

Black Widows Everywhere

I don't mean to frighten anyone, but just be on the lookout. We have black widows all over St. George.

This was reconfirmed for me last week when I went to gas up my car. I found a colony of hundreds of baby black widows. Some of them were even on the pump handle!

You may have seen a baby black widow yourself and not known it, so I'm going to post some pictures of them below. I won't make you look at them though, so you'll have to click on the links to see them.

Tiny spiderlets have almost no color when they are born.


Juviniles all have the hourglass shape on their abdomens, but it always starts out white.


Males have a distinctive pattern on their abdomen. They also have the hourglass shape, but I don't think it ever turns red.

Immaturity

Thought this was pretty funny:
