I have started trimming back some of the flowers now that fall has arrived. I went to trim the seed pods from my peony tree until I saw this lovely lady sitting smack dab in the middle of the bush. Needless to say, I backed off to leave her alone, as I did not want to disturb her beautiful web. I can hardly believe the size of these common garden spiders, they are enormous, well to these parts anyhow. She's a beauty!
A few days later I went to see if she was still there and found this egg casing securely attached to the branches, and it is still there after 2 weeks unchanged. Oh my am I going to have a lot of little babies.
Thank you for stopping by my post, I hope you enjoyed it.
Until next time, this is Sunscape...
Sun. Scape. Ing your day
