An active hunter, the female Nursery Web spider spins web to protect her young as they are about to hatch to protect them until they are able to venture out alone. She will carry the egg-sac in her fangs before they hatch.
They are a widespread species and are a relatively large spider, (1.5cm long body), closely related to the rarer Raft spider; they can be spotted sunbathing in brambles or on nettles.
This is the one thing I like about winters is sunlight in evening becomes so soft, last year I've found this beautiful spider's web on my roof so I just captured it.

June 25, 2007. Perhaps one of the most perfect webs I've seen.
The silver strands that form the net
Are beaded with the stars of night
Lie jewelled dewdrops that adorn
A spiderweb in morning light.
