Fall Spider by Ben Parsley

Fall Spider (Mangrove Golden Orb-weaving Spider) measuring almost five inches long kept a web that hung from a overhead telephone line down to cling to a four foot bush. She resided there for almost four months through heavy thunderstorms. I shot this picture November 6, 2006 and interestingly the next day I went out - and the spider was gone. Image taken with Canon A520.
