@finallyaniguana submitted: A few friends from a recent trip to South Carolina 💛

Two large beauties! 10/10 I love them both deeply

Saw this Beautiful Golden Silk Spider (Trichonephila clavipes) 🕷 while walking to The Pet Project yesterday for volunteering 😄
Trichonephila clavipes is the only species of the genus Trichonephila indigenous to continental North and South America. In the United States, it is commonly known as the "banana spider". (Source: Wikipedia)
Joro spiders are from Japan but they live in the US now! Their butts are about the size of kidney beans. Here's three individuals I saw today:
(1) eating a wausp (2) notice the golden web (3) rear end
three Australian Golden Orb females, pictured here from youngest (top) to oldest (bottom), offering a nice look at the change in colours and patterning over their 1 year lifespan. hopefully some males will appear in the web of the oldest female soon. interestingly, the second and third spiders are both missing the same right leg.
Australian Golden Orbweaver, 3 female individuals (Trichnephila edulis).
an ode to a misunderstood, sensationalized spider that will do nobody any harm but is being demonized by news outlets for clicks and money <3 (2 hours in ms paint)

High-up Golden Orb Nest
Unidentified, genus Trichonephila

And now for the two (2) clear frames I got from the video I took standing on my tiptoes to hold the phone close enough.
In these ones you can actually see the male!
I planned to make a video talking about this species but getting the camera to focus was too absurdly difficult. These frames are from two separate fractions of a second when the camera was refocusing.
I'll use this photo to make another lineness digital painting because this one's super pretty :)
[Image description start. Two photos showing the same two golden silk spiders hanging in a web in front of several grapevines in each photo, with the only different between the photos being a slight different in the position of the spider from the wind moving the web. The largest and most noticeable spider is the female, and she has a very large, long abdomen that is orange on top and red on the sides. Her cephalothoroax, or head section, is flat and white with black spots where her eyes are, making it look like her head is a candy skull. Her legs are long and orange, with fuzzy blackjoints that narrow at the ends to look like long claws. Just above her on the web is the much tinier male, who is mostly a dark silowet, with some faint stripes visible on his legs. Image description end.]
Here’s a couple from the Florida Keys, I tried to submit it but the submission button does nothing.
Cool blog, look forward to seeing more.
Thank you! And wow, what fashionable friends! The first is a tetrio sphinx moth caterpillar and the second of course is a golden silk spider :)
