My obsession with Orb Weavers continues. I watched this one build it's web from beginning to end. It took her about 15 minutes to build. They eat their web, and build a new one every day. They are still pretty small, but are growing rapidly. I apologize to anyone who cannot stand the sight of them. I find them fascinating, and I am thankful that they return every summer. They eat so many mosquitos, and that is one of the reasons I love them so much.
Great capture. If they truly eat mosquitos I would more appreciate their presence. Mosquitos are a big nuisance especially for Christine who seems to be a good subject for them to attack.
