Writing Spider


I've got the coolest Writing Spider ever. I found it a couple of weeks ago at the corner of the house. I had one last year too but it was where I couldn't get a good picture of it. I talked Kim into coming around and looking at it. She said it was "beautiful". Boo, sarcasm. Now, I wouldn't want it on me but it's cool to have around.

Great photo! I agree, it is beautiful, as long as it's at YOUR house! LOL I've seen one like this before, is it really called a Writing Spider??

Thanks Shannon. Yeah, it's also called a "black and yellow garden spider" and a "corn spider". Scientific name is "Argiope aurantia".
