Description
Our neighbour came to me in the morning, eyes wide open and say: "Please come with me. We´ve got a big spider in the edge of the window and no one dared to take her away. Me and my two little girls followed her to take a look.
I took an empty jam jar and led the spider in it. My daughters liked to watch her closer and I take her with me. On the local graveyard-wall I set her free to take some pictures and let the girls watching it.
This large specimen of Araneus diadematus is a female spider, I think, because of the male aren´t as large as that one was. The body of that spider, without the legs, was about 15-20 mm long.
Tomorrow I will show you the profile of that beauty.
Best view is in full-size.
Greetings to all my supporters her at RR and thank you very much for taking the time to view and rate/comment my images in the past.
Hope you understand my strange english language...
