A grass spider with distinct dark brown and tan stripes on the cephalothorax. The abdomen has striping as well, but it's subtler and sort of spotted, giving it more of a knitted sweater kind of look.
a grass spider i found this summer! the abdomen pattern reminds me of a sweater, so i think they look very cozy 🥹 #spider #agelenopsis #grassspider #funnelwebspider #funnelweaver #arachtober

Small group of sturdy mushrooms with wavy plum-red scaled yellow caps next to a rotting tree stump. They are surrounded by moss, leaves and grass. On the ground in front of the stems is a dense spiderweb with a funnel-shaped hole. The web is very loosely attached to the mushrooms. It's not obvious at first glance, but there is a rather large dark spider, most likely a funnel weaver, hiding close to the tree stump.
Lovely fungus with the very fitting name Plums and Custard (Tricholomopsis rutilans). Can you spot the spiderweb's creator? (Found in Styria, Austria)
