Wrong about November?

I know that 3 days in a month doesn't constitute a trend, but today the weather in the Bella Coola Valley could have convinced anyone that November is a good month.  Warm, a slight outflow wind and sunshine made it a bonus day.  We reached a high of 14 C which is quite amazing for early November.

Thanks to the readers who made a couple suggestions about the spider photo I posted yesterday, I'm going to go with the spider being a Cross Orbweaver (Araneus diadematus), apparently common, not toxic if bitten and this one is a female. Grizzly
