Halloween Creatures: The Spider

​Isaiah 59:5 People hatch evil like eggs from poisonous snakes... they tell lies as they would spin a spider’s web.

Orbweaver spider on large web reflecting over water. Athens, Clarke County, GA. Neoscona crucifera is an orb-weaver spider in the family Araneidae. Spiders produce silk from their spinneret glands located at the tip of their abdomen.
In a  recent blog, I asked how a wildlife photographer could keep a stock portfolio relevant to upcoming holidays such as Halloween. The answer? Creepy Creatures! There are plenty of scary, macabre and spooky animals related to Halloween that can fill an animal photographer’s portfolio.

Take the spider! (Well, no thanks, not me. I won’t take the spider!) Just the thought of those spindly, hairy legs lightly creeping across your skin can make your hair stand up! Halloween aside, I’ve always gotten the heebie jeebies when it comes to arachnids!

Perhaps it is that sticky silk woven into webs to trap unsuspecting prey. It may give us the subconscious idea of the curses woven by those Halloween witches. Either way, it is no thrill to walk through a dark wood and be lashed across the face by an unseen web… and wonder if the maker is now in your hair or crawling down your back.

And those eyes, hundreds of eyes! One superstition is that the dead could peer upon the living through the eyes of a spider. No wonder these little creepy crawlies and their webs are favorite decorations at Halloween!

Halloween Creatures: the vulture

Jesus answered, “Where there is a dead body, there the vultures will gather.”
​Luke 17:37 ​
Black Vulture Picture

The black vulture is a scavenger and feeds on carrion, but will also eat eggs or kill newborn animals. Need stock photos?

Thursday, 10:06 AM - There are plenty of critters out there in the wild that people have long associated with Halloween. One such creature is the vulture. Why are they thought of as creepy critters fitting for the witching hour?

Perhaps it is their creepy bill of fare. There isn’t much that is more gruesome than a gathering of vultures hunched over rotting carrion on the roadside. In fact, a gathering of vultures feeding on a corpse is called a wake… of course referring to the pre-funeral vigil held beside the body of someone who has died.

If that isn’t enough, perhaps it is their fitting Halloween attire. Black Vultures (Coragyps atratus) are, of course, all dressed in black. Turkey Vultures are dressed in similar mourning garb, but sport blood-red heads. A suitable spooky ensemble.
​
If all of that wasn’t enough to scare you, their dreadful voice will certainly tip the scale. When vocalizing, the vulture is no Song Sparrow. His voice is a deep, hissing, grating croak which can stop you dead in your tracks and make your skin crawl.

Great Horned Owl

​Psalms 104:24 -- O LORD, how manifold are Your works! In wisdom You have made them all. The earth is full of Your possessions;
Great Horned Owl Picture
The Great Horned Owl (Bubo virginianus), also known as the hoot owl, is a large owl native to the Americas.
Monday, 7:15 AM - The pre-dawn sky was still a deep magenta as I turned off Highway 78 onto Jim Daws Road. There atop a snag was a huge owl. Even though the bird was mostly a dark silhouette, I just knew it was something larger, something greater… a Great Horned Owl! 

I couldn’t miss this photo-op. I pulled over just down the road, went around to the passenger side for my camera and headed back to the owl. Just enough light was hitting his amber body to give a bit of a glow and produce a decent photo. 

As I was shooting the owl, I noticed the podcast I had been listening to (the American Birding Association’s podcast, of course) cut off and the radio flashed, “lost Bluetooth connection.” After a few seconds it dawned on me: MY PHONE! I must have knocked it out of the truck when I got my camera. I sped back… but no phone. It was gone. 

Thankfully there were several messages at my office from my wife and the gentleman who had found my phone. I gave the guy twenty bucks, a small token for his honesty, and retrieved my cracked up phone. But again, thankfully, it was only the screen protector that was cracked. My phone had survived. I’ll always remember my encounter with this owl and another lesson learned.

Life Bird: Chestnut-sided Warbler

Chestnut Sided Warbler Picture
Chestnut-sided Warbler; Clarke County, GA.
Saturday, 8:55 AM – With an unusually open morning came the privilege of relaxing and birding my back patio a little bit longer than most Saturdays. With the fall migrations beginning, I decided to browse the Merlin app for warblers that I hadn’t yet photographed and try some playback to see what I could see. The Chestnut-sided Warbler was near the top of the probable list for Athens at this time of year.
​
I was shooting nearly every bird that passed through the yard. A few “small yellow birds” flitted into the trees, but as far as I knew, the Chestnut-sided hadn’t responded to my calls.

​As the morning wore on and the bird activity slowed down, I reviewed my photos. Northern Parula… Pine Warbler… Then I saw it. There was a shot of one little yellow bird lifting its wing as it flew off its perch in the persimmon. There under the wing was an unmistakable patch of reddish-brown! A Chestnut-sided Warbler. Who is next?

At 186 feet high, Toccoa Falls is one of the tallest free falling waterfalls east of the Mississippi River. It is located on the campus of Toccoa Falls College in Georgia.
"There is nothing more eloquent in Nature than a mountain stream. Its banks are luxuriantly peopled with rare and lovely flowers and overarching trees, making one of Nature’s coolest and most hospitable places. Every tree, every flower, every ripple and eddy of this lovely stream seemed  solemnly to feel the presence of the great Creator. Lingered in this sanctuary a long time thanking the Lord with all of my heart for His goodness in allowing me to enjoy it."

Blue Ridge Outdoor Education Center Picture
Friday - I was able to sneak myself along as a chaperone on my daughter’s field trip to the Blue Ridge Outdoor Education Center in Toccoa, Georgia. I tried to keep it discreet, but was doing some birding for the two days we were at the mountain retreat.

When we arrived, the Turkey and Black Vultures were soaring in the clear, hot skies. My third bird was a Hairy Woodpecker clinging to a tree just outside our cabin. Our first activity was “A Walk in the Woods”; and it was exactly as it sounds: a walk in the woods! About midway through the hike, the camp counsellor had the kids stand in silence next to a small stream with their eyes closed. As I participated, I heard the distinct call of a White-breasted Nuthatch in the distance. While the kids were involved in team-building activities, I heard a Belted Kingfisther call from down a trail labelled “Wetlands Trail.” Quite fitting.
​
But my few photos from the trip came just after breakfast Friday morning when I snuck out to a patio behind the dining hall. I spotted wrens, a Downy Woodpecker, a Pine Warbler and watched as two Pileated Woodpeckers chased each other through the pines… too quick to get a photograph. I spotted 18 species in the the two days at BROEC.

Wednesday, 7:45 AM - I’ve come across nearly every other woodpecker in Walton County, but hadn’t photographed a Red-headed Woodpecker. But I finally spotted one this moring… and not just one, but three! Two adults and one juvenile flew over the main pond heading from south to north.
 
While standing near the upper pond hoping for some new warblers, a long-tailed bird flew into the trees and began cuckoo-ing. I tried a little playback from my phone and two Yellow-billed Cuckcoos came forward to peer at me.

​We’ve never seen nature unchained and undiminished. We’ve only seen it cursed and decaying. Yet even now we see a great deal that pleases and excites us, moving our hearts to worship. If the “wrong side” of Heaven can be so beautiful, what will the right side look like? If the smoking remains are so stunning, what will Earth look like when it’s resurrected and made new, restored to the original? From Heaven, by Randy Alcorn

Great Blue Heron Picture
In flight Great Blue Heron on a pond in Walton County, Georgia. The great blue heron Ardea herodias is a large wading bird in the heron family.
Monday, 10:35 AM - As I came up to the pond where I regularly do some birding, this gorgeous Great Blue Heron was perched upon a duck breeding box at the far end of the pond. Normally, he is too skittish to sit out on the open pond so close to buildings. I knew he probably wouldn’t sit there long, and if I was patient, I might get a shot.
 
My hope was that when this heron left his perch, he’d fly to a nearby pond behind me. So I positioned myself in the shade right in the anticipated flight path. Wait on it. Wait on it.  Finally, after about twelve minutes, a vehicle came by and spooked him from his perch.

Well, I was correct in that as soon as a vehicle drove nearby he would take off. But I was wrong about his direction. Instead of flying toward the other pond, he flew to my side of the pond and landed on the bank not far from where I was sitting!

Light, consistent drizzle continues to fall but the winds have died down. 73°F. 
Slow moving Florence will continue to produce significant rainfall amounts across the Southeast as the system moves inland. Up to 15 inches additional rainfall will exacerbate ongoing flooding, and heavy rain farther inland will bring new areas of flooding and flash flooding, with the potential for landslides in the Appalachians. Damaging winds and isolated tornadoes are also possible.
