Thank you ☺️. The bodies of these spiders grow to about 35mm, this one is only about half that size, about 20mm. Add on her legs and she’s still a good sized spider.
It is amazing that the web is liquid inside her and when it is released it solidifies. You must have a good camera. The images are great. Love the editing and commentary also
Thank you Dave! It’s also amazing that they can produce different types and colours of silk. Only the outer network of threads are gold, theses are visible to bees, her inner orb web is woven from white silk that is invisible to bees. It’s all shot using my phone and a little $40 macro attachment. ❤️🎥
@@KathrynKermode I just realised where you were. I spoke to Simon the photographer and he knows you. I live in the Clarence Valley also. Lovely part of the planet. Insects are one of my favourite things to watch and wonder about.
Thank you for another beautiful video Kathryn 😊 I hope your channel gains more viewership it's a real hidden treasure!

Whereabouts are you? Enjoyed the video. The male is pretty intrepid.
Thank you. 🙂I'm filming in the Clarence Valley, NSW, on the east cost of Australia.

I like the St Andrew’s cross spider, their colours are so vivid and the X they make is such a statement.
@@Soffity I love them too. I’ll have to create a video about them.
