A day in the life

By Shelling

Pholcus phalangioides

I came across an article about spider species expanding in Sweden due to climate change. I didn't read out of interest, it just caught my eye. In late afternoon this fella crawled down my wall and I came to think of the article again. It's very similar to one of the four species expanding and it's quite common indoors. I'm not absolutely sure this is a Pholcus, it's welcome to live its life in my house.
I just thought it's weird how I read something about spiders in the morning and later in the day that very thing shows up on my wall. It's also the first spider I've seen this year.
