Field Notes

Description:

Silver garden spider. Extremely long legs and the characteristic zigzag pattern in web made up of thicker silk called stabilimentum helps identify it as a garden spider. It usually sits head down in the middle of the web.
The interesting joker face on its back is intriguing.
