Back in summer, I went for a drive, and a few minutes into it, I saw a spider outside the driver's-side window. It had built a web between the door and the side mirror, and was hanging onto it in the slipstream. A timely red light allowed the spider to hurry into the side mirror for safety for the rest of the trip.
The next time I went outside to the garage, the spider was once again on my car. This time, I moved the spider over to the window opposite its former home. It has lived on the window shade since then, sometimes hiding in the gap that shows at the top of the above picture. The December cold seemingly hasn't affected its ability to find food. The white egg sacs on display above indicate that this spider has done was it was born to do. Eat, prey, reproduce.
