Argiope aurantia pics from relocation project

[Ted]

I spent some time this weekend relocating as many of these from a soon to be paved over patch of woods next to the interstate nearby.
I let the go in our condo courtyard and nearby lake edge.

After all these years I am still mazed by their great disposition, amazing colors, and complex webs.
what a sexy spider.

I've relocated some of these just to have them around the house.

You're right, such a gorgeous spider! Great job on the relocation. Save anything and everything you can... especially spiders.

We do it here also and have many here and around the yard to include trifasciata and the shamrock spider.
