Love you lots CB btway my sisters' name is Mary Lou Cupp on this site!!! I remember you asked me once. Sorry for the late response.

Mary Janosik 21 Jan 2007

These are great shots, Christine!! Engaged in battle or hanky panky?? Sometimes it's hard to tell... :)

Artist Reply: My Friend! these two were most likely in love, they danced upon this leaf for quite some time, fluttering kisses. Front feelers that moved so quickly you barely could see them, but it was really interesting. Something I have never encountered before. But when I walk through the fields I look for things like this on purpose because it is always fun to see what is new out in the wild, hehe! As I am sure you do too. I hope you are well today and having a wonderful time. We finally have winter here. it has been really a strange season, exceptionally warm. The snow has arrived however. How is it there? I send lots of love to you and all your family Mary!! sincerely CB

Ruth Kauffman 21 Jan 2007

These are very stunning captures, Christine!!

Artist Reply: Hi! Ruth! glad you find my spiders interesting. I have never seen kissing spiders before but I think that is exactly what they were doing...I watched for a while and they were not violent but tender and soft with each other fluttering their little front feelers. Spiders in love...a strange and intriguing site. Thanks for looking at my work. It is always a pleasure to hear from you. I hope you have a wonderful day and are safe and warm. It is snowing here. God bless and keeep you in his care. Love CB
