Young Orb Weaver?

It's very much smaller than the ones I've found in late summer, early autumn.

I wonder why spiders don't get caught in their own webs

@seacreature Not all the threads are sticky and spiders know which ones aren't. Also, they only touch the web with the hairs on the tips of their feet and they make sure to clean off anything on their bodies that might get stuck.
