Title: Shamrock Orbweaver spider
Post by: Shortsighted on September 11, 2023, 02:45:52 PM
This spider got my attention because of the way light was being reflected from its back. The spots did not look white, but instead sparkled like abalone shell, or multi-coloured glitter paint, thereby resembling a piece of jewellery. By the time I had the camera the light had changed and it just would not play an encore.
