My Pet Spider Is Back!

[Ludwig Venter]

When I moved into this house about a year ago.... I saw one of these spiders in the garden and I have a topic about it somewhere, where it was identified as a Golden Orb Spider.

It's very unlikely that this is the same spider, but at least it is the same type spinning his golden web between two trees in my garden (just above the fence to the neighbours)

The web has a span of up to 3m and is so tough, it will even trap a bird flying into it....

Note the beautiful golden strings in the web.. (& the sun was in the wrong spot to take decent photos, but it is a beautiful spider)
