Golden Silk Orb-weaver

Named for the color of its silk, this Golden Silk Orb-weaver’s web was in just the right light to see why.

A close up of the web, so interesting that the strands towards the center of the web (left) are spaced in a even grid-type pattern, and towards the outer edge the circular bands are closer together.

    1. The sheer size, often 3 or more feet (at least a meter), across of their webs is pretty impressive, always hard to get the whole thing in a good light. And the strands are very strong–if you happen to walk into one you know it!
      Thanks, so glad that you liked them.
