A natural weaving machine in action.... by robz

A natural weaving machine in action....

This is the best demo I have ever seen of a spider in action!! If you look really carefully you can see two legs holding the strands out at the side, the hind legs, having already collected the strand from its production point, are now holding it up at a suitable height and the remaining legs are actually doing the weaving.
Amazing close up

@kali66 Thanks Kali - I was pretty amazed at what he was doing - he seemed to have so many techniques in common with the old vintage looms. Cheers
