Orb Web Weaver with a large web
Here is a tiny Orb Web Weaver (family Araneidae) spider with a large web on an old seed head of native Black Sage (Salvia mellifera, Lamiaceae). The spider is quite small, less than 1/8 inch, maybe a Labyrinth Spider (genus Metepeira, Araneidae), see closer shot this photo. It also looks like the work of a Zygiella or Parazygiella with a missing section like a pie slice? Happy Web Webnesday! (San Marcos Pass, 11 February 2022)
