Floating Leaves?!

SubhanAllah, today i got to see one of the many signs of Allah that we seldom notice unless we set our eyes to look for it. Last time when i was a medical student, we, the medical students were always reminded that the eyes cannot see what the mind doesnt know. So when examining a patient, we have to know what to look for, then we'll see what we're looking for. Otherwise, the thing will be 'staring' at you but you just cant see it. Come to think of it, same goes with the signs of Allah. Allah's creations all around us are actually signs of His existence, if only we really observe and ponder over the magnificence of these creatures.

So today, i saw floating leaves! From a distance, it looked as if it was floating but when i looked at it closely, there was a very fine string of spider thread holding it from a branch of tree above!
it was amazing because, it was quite a windy day, the tree branch from where the leaves were hanging from was quite high above and the fact that its not just 1 leaf, but a bunch of it, made the thing even more amazing.

i did heard somewhere, some time ago that spiders silk is truly amazing.
The following are some interesting points i got from harunyahya.com on the spiders thread:

• Spiders' thread is five times stronger than steel of the same thickness, and can stretch to four times its own length.
•  A silk thread stretching around the whole world would only weigh 320 grams
• spider thread, from the point of view of its resistance to breaking and the extent it can stretch before breaking, is a material the like of which does not exist
• Spider silk is stronger and more elastic than Kevlar, and Kevlar is the strongest man-made fiber

In the creation of the heavens and earth, and the alternation of the night and day, and the ships which sail the seas to people's benefit, and the water which God sends down from the sky – by which He brings the earth to life when it was dead and scatters about in it creatures of every kind – and the varying direction of the winds, and the clouds subservient between heaven and earth, there are Signs for people who use their intellect. (Surat al-Baqara: 164)
