We've got some friends in the garden. My husband Lee and I do our best not to disturb them too much. We know they have a waited-all-summer appetite for mosquitoes....So with all the rain we've had lately, let the feast begin!
Above: Spiny Orb Weaver which looks kinda like a crab, Golden Silk Spider (growing several inches wide through the fall), and a Golden Orb Weaver.
(They're non-venomous but will bite if you compromise their safety.)
They seem slower to get established this year in our garden. I wonder if the terribly cold winter had something to do with it? I love them, but wish they would keep the webs out of the walkways. Morning walks are hell!!!
