Sue Vincent's Daily Echo 
We had a fellow much like this guy. Barb and I watched him lunch on his capture each morning while we set on the porch having coffee. Several weeks passed then a storm came through so severe that we lost our power for 28 hours.
We haven’t seen him since.

I hope he has found a safe place to hunt.

Yes, I like to think he ended up somewhere good.

Golden Orb spiders have amazing patterns on their abdomens, and beautiful webs – I try to protect any I find, and won’t let anyone tear the webs down or trim off the big leaves they hide in. They do an amazing job of dealing with the things that eat my garden.

I’m fairly sure the one in the pic is one of the golden orb spiders – there are many of them, and I often wonder if their markings are a form of ‘language’

Golden orbs don’t live in our chillier climate, though this garden spider does spin an orb web. I think you may be right about their markings… a language we may never read.

Do you know that because of you and a couple of other people, I am not automatically killing every spider I encounter? I even let them live around the front door because they kill other insects. You have helped me overcome a lifelong phobia.

That’s wonderful to read, Marilyn! I still treat them with respect in the house, and remove small ones from my bedroom and car after the spider-bite fiasco, but some of the ones that have decided to share my home are as big as field mice. At least you can see where they are 🙂
