Marbled Orbweaver Spider
People with arachnophobia, the fear of spiders, can in some cases have reactions triggered by just the image of a spider. To view my images of a Marbled Orbweaver Spider just click on the clip art spider.
With the cold weather moving into our neighborhood, I started doing some fall chores to prepare for winter. The hummingbirds have headed south so it was time to take down the hummingbird feeder. As I turned the feeder over to drain it, I found this orange Marbled Orbweaver Spider (Araneus marmoreus).
A view of the spider showing its 8 eyes and one of its black fangs.
After taking lots of photos, I released it on the wall in front of the barn.
