Field guide No. 647
Dry cobweb beneath a red umbrella
Kept dry, underwater.
In a flooded room a red umbrella lies against a chair on the bottom, and in the air pocket under it a dusty cobweb hangs perfectly dry. The spider made the right call.
Field noteUpside down on a flooded floor, the umbrella keeps a pocket of air and a cobweb stays dusty inside it.
