Description
This little guy was camping out on one of our bushes. I'm glad to have him. ^^ Such a beautiful spider.Also I find this kind of funny but I guess horrible. Yay. Gallows Humour.
"Yellow garden spiders breed once a year. The males roam in search of a female, building a small web near or actually in the female's web, then court the females by plucking strands on her web. Often, when the male approaches the female, he has a safety drop line ready, in case she attacks him. After mating, the male dies, and is sometimes then eaten by the female."
