Apologies

[Cuddy]

If i have posted this before, cant find it in the forum.

Any help with ID appreciated, my thoughts are Yellow orb spider and Migrant hawker.

regards brian.

That must be pasted on from somewere! If not, actully, even if it is, what a lucky, interesting, colourful and mostly inspirational photograph cuddy

Would have been nice to get a little more detail and a little less OOF (out of focus, im not thrusting towards the screen ) in the foreground.

Spider looks like Araneus quadratus but can't be totally sure, not good on DF's sorry. Nice capture BTW.

Good capture in both senses - your's and the spider's! Thats amazing!

 

[toonamp]

What a great take , no idea on the ID but well done

 

[Cuddy]

Thank you for looking guys, and taking the time to comment. The spider is certainly a new one for me.

Cracking shot!

AJ this was at Hickling Broad in Norfolk, taken in October. I think i might send it to Norfolk wildlife Trust to see if they can ID it.

Hi Cuddy. I had a little look on the Norfolk spider recorders site and found this : http://norfolk.britishspiders.org.uk/Norfolk_Spider_Group_Photo_Gallery/image008.htm HTH
An Araneus marmoreus var. pyramidatus female 5-14mm by the looks of it.

It's a really corker btw

 

[Cuddy]

Thanks Jo you have nailed it for me.

regards brian
