Gather round feral friends and in honor of Halloween, let's dim the lights and tell spooky stories about the creepy cryptid with glowing red eyes known as the mothman.  From his best-known origins in Point Pleasant, WV to his more recent shenanigans in the greater Chicago region - including both my wife's and my own hometowns!  It's a bit of spooky Halloween fun!

It's spooky season feral friends!  So to honor that we're taking a look at some critters that go with Halloween like peanut butter goes with jelly: spiders - specifically some species of spider that often turn up in your house.  Seriously, you're surrounded by spiders, you might as well get to know them!

Recovering from surgery has kept me in the house the last week or so, but I've got owls, orb weavers (or rather a lack of orb weavers) and book recommendations!
