[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I saw lots of spiders and webs at Pig Bush today, this was the only one big enough to get a half decent shot of. I could only get shots from the underside of the spider because of the position of the web. I think it is a Comb-footed spider, I would be grateful if anyone could confirm this or correct me.
I thank Lawbert for the ID. Orb Weavers are the third largest family of spiders including 2800 species.
