30 Days Wild: Day 10

Cellar Spider (Pholcidae phalangioides)
I don't have a cellar but I see these in my little shower room. I have seen ones with less than 8 legs and others with egg sacs. Last year I saw one sac hatch and for a while there were lots of tiny spiders present. They soon dispersed and I'm not sure where they all disappeared to!

They gyrate when threatened which makes them look larger. Not sure these photos show it but it is possible to see their internal organs. My camera is probably not powerful enough.
