| [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. |

Hello Lee
I posted one of these fellas shown from the underside a week or 2 ago and I had no idea what it was..And the reply I got was its an Orb Weaver. Great detail with the food ball on the web..He is munching it in my one..
Best Regards
