Day 577: 5 Minute Freewrite: Monday-Prompt: window
It has been raining like crazy so I wasn't surprised to see my first Cranefly of the year because they thrive in damp conditions. I usually only see one during spring and I always find it resting on my window. Some people think that this cranefly is a giant mosquito. Thank goodness it isn't. Some people call this Cranefly "Daddy Long Legs." And then there is another one that looks like a spider who many people call, "Daddy Long Legs" but it isn't a spider, it is a "Harvestman." To add to the madness, there is a cellar spider who makes webs and it is called, "Daddy Long Legs."
How do you tell the difference? A Cranefly's body is long and has 2 parts, it has 6 legs, it is much larger than a mosquito and can be seen during the day. A Harvestman's body has just one part, it has 8 legs, it is not a spider and can be seen during the day. The Cellar Spider's body has 2 parts, 8 legs, comes out at night and is the only one that makes a web.
