steve_b_wales Posted October 1, 2013 Report Share Posted October 1, 2013 I just took a photo of this little beauty that has made a web by the side of my shed. Also fed him a juicy fly that I swatted inside my house. Any ideas what it might be? (I know it's a spider but what type) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ernest Posted October 1, 2013 Report Share Posted October 1, 2013 Its a garden spider also known as a cross spider because of the marking on its back. Theres a few round by me they keep the kids occupied trying to find them too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
