Early this morning, Son called to me as he went through the Little Bayou House. "Hey, Mom. There is a Golden Orb Weaver out here." He knows that I love these spiders and would surely want to photograph her. He continued "It has been a while since I have seen one this large." Ok! So that meant I really needed to stop what I was doing and go see this spider!
Sure enough, the spider was a nice sized one! She had spun her web on the corner of the house in the far back side of the vegetable garden. Ahh, good spot! Except for one thing. Her web is directly over the water faucet that I use to water the tomatoes! Well, she and I will just have to come to an understanding. She can stay on her web and catch as many bugs as she wants as long as I can use the hose occasionally. If she is good with that, everything will be fine and dandy....as long as Mark does not have to use the water hose. He is NOT as big of a fan of these spiders as I am! She is quite the lovely thing!
