Crawling on a pile of cut Yellow Iris leaves at the edge of a small, freshwater pond. I have no idea what type of fungus is growing extensively on the rotting leaves, but it can be seen sticking to the hairs of this apterous fly in several of my photos (see third image for best illustration).

Egg sac on the underside of a Fatsia japonica leaf tip.

I first discovered this egg sac in January. I made the decision then to check back on it intermittently to see if I could figure out roughly when the spiderlings might hatch. Here's the second observation from March. And, here's the third observation from May.

The presence of the prominent exit hole in this observation means that some time between May 23 and June 23 the spiderlings emerged. I know it's only one small bit of data, but it's a little more than a knew before! :)

Egg sac on the underside of a Fatsia japonica leaf tip. The presence of the theridiid is either entirely coincidental or perhaps it was interested/investigating the uloborid's egg sac. There is a separate observation for the adult spider here:

I first discovered this egg sac a few months earlier in January. I made the decision then to check back on it intermittently to see if I could figure out roughly when the spiderlings might hatch.
Related following observations from May and from June.
