An orb-weaving species, wasp spider (Argiope bruennichi) spins large, beautiful webs that require an hour to create. The thick, zigzagging line in the middle of the web may serve to entrance and attract its prey. As its name suggests, it is capable of wrapping, biting, and injecting various species of wasp. Females consume the smaller males after copulation.
A season of loneliness and isolation is when the caterpillar gets it's wings. Remember that next time you feel alone.
The spotted orbweaver (Neoscona crucifera) is nocturnal: it sleeps during the day and is active at night. It has a regular schedule, mending webs at dusk to snare prey during the night. It often builds webs indoors or near buildings, and if you see a web on a window, the spotted orbweaver probably made it.
