Golden silk orb-weaver

We have two pairs of these beautiful spiders who have just settled in our garden! So amazing to watch! The name of the golden silk orb-weavers refers to the color of the spider silk, not the color of the spider itself. The golden silk orb-weavers (genus Nephila) are a genus of araneomorph spiders noted for the impressive webs they weave. Nephila consists of numerous individual species found around the world. They are also commonly called golden orb-weavers, giant wood spiders, or banana spiders. In North America, the golden silk orb-weavers (see also Nephila clavipes) are sometimes referred to as writing spiders due to occasional zigzag patterns (stabilimenta) built into their webs, though these occur much more frequently in the webs of Argiope, such as the St Andrew's Cross spider. The genus name Nephila is derived from Ancient Greek, meaning "fond of spinning",[1] from the words (nen) = to spin (related to nema νήμα "thread") + φίλος (philos) = "love". http://flic.kr/p/jLGNqH
