Golden Garden Spider

Super close-up perspective of Golden Garden Spider with raindrops

After the rain, I was plucking grape tomatoes from the wild tomato vine next to the corn patch in my garden when I noticed the golden garden spider. I love this species of spider even though I don’t really care for spiders. A few of the spider species does catch my interest. There was a web in front of the web the spider perched on. She really didn’t mind my sticking the macro lens up-close to her. By the way, the weather has turned cool after the rain at 75 degrees Fahrenheit… wonderful!

Now that is a good way to examine a spider. Right up there on my display! She’s a beauty, Anna – thanks for sharing.

Great capture, Anna! Temps dropped here, too! I had to dig out my sweater this morning! Feels so good, though!
