Yellow Garden Spider

I am putting this post up to glorify the Lord. I am still astounded that God has made such detailed, unique and wondrously weird creatures to reflect His creativity and glory. I couldn't help but notice the pattern of the web and the size of these beautiful Argiope aurantia next to our water hose. They still sort of creep me out, but I am more awestruck than scared. Apparently they eat their web for nutrients, then spin another one. As you can see there are two of them about 3 feet apart. I'm just glad they aren't on the inside of our house. I will leave them there to catch all the creepy-crawly annoying bugs they want.
