Big Spider

Big ass spider in my garden. Picture doesn’t really do justice to his size, or his yellow and black pattern, or the awesome zigzag of his web.

    just saw it on another friend’s blog last week. I can’t tell if the spider is the same, but the web looks similar. Must be the season.
    very cool.

    It was huge. Tried multiple times to get a good shot of her, but she was not very photogenic.

    It is very cool. Need to go back out and see if she is still there.

    I think it is the same! From your buddy’s blog:

    “Anyway, it didn’t take long before I figured out exactly what kind of spider I was dealing with. The bright yellow body and the way she sat upside down were good clues, but more telling was the zigzagging webbing pattern. My little gal is a common black and yellow garden spider, also known as an argiope. They show up in the fall and tend to die soon before or after the first freeze *sticks tongue out at hubby*. They’re non-threatening to humans and are really good for the garden – though after all the mosquito bites I got on Monday she wasn’t doing her job that well.”

    Mine also had the prominent zigzag. And like in her picture, there was a little wrapped up cocoon thing in her web. I watched her making it! I am not clear on if she was wrapping up her prey to save for later?

    VERY cool.

  5. awesome! I think they do sometimes wrap something up and snack on it for a while…
    uugh.

    She’s still there! Love her.
