"Spider trees"

[feh]

This would be so weird to see in person.

"An unexpected side effect of the 2010 flooding in parts of Sindh, Pakistan, was that millions of spiders climbed up into the trees to escape the rising flood waters; because of the scale of the flooding and the fact that the water took so long to recede, many trees became cocooned in spiderwebs. People in the area had never seen this phenomenon before. (Courtesy: National Geographic)"

Cutworm?

Hi,


Actually, I have seen close to that in northern Michigan, some kind of nasty cutworm or something.:cower:

I've seen caterpillars do this many times. But it's cool when spiders do it.

I've seen caterpillars do it to a portion of a tree before. When I was a kid my brothers and I called them "army worms". I have no idea what they were really called, but they would swarm some trees like an army of...well...worms.
