Description
Hi dear Friends!
We call this spider in Dutch "de tijgerspin".
Latin: Argiope bruennichi.
This is a female.
I shoot about 40 good photo's of it, LOL.
It was the same day as I catches the Six-spot Burnet,
and not far away from the location of that.
Some information from the Internet:
The favorite food of the tiger spider is the grasshopper, though she will grab just about everything that is in the strong, sticky threads of its web continues to hang. This allows large and powerful prey, such as bees or dragonflies. The spider then goes quickly into action and start wrapping the prey. Here she uses strikingly spinning thread and soon the prey tightly wrapped in a thick layer of white silk. Now the victim totally forgot, because to work to make the wasp spider bites with poison.
Thank you very much for your kind words on my earlier upload. It's very much appreciated!
I'm pretty busy, even though it is very hot (35 degrees in the shade)
Karel now brings me to Geleen, where I go pick up a second hand bike.
It would be a solid and strong bike.
The bike I now bicycle almost falls apart.
LOL, just like me!
Love to you all, and see you later :)
Zoom does make it better.

I don't like spiders but I find this one very interesting. Your comment about your current bicycle falling apart just like you made me laugh.
She looks very dangerous but very beautiful. It is a super capture of her. I am chuckling over you and your bicycle falling apart together. I hope you have lots of enjoyable journeys on your new one.

I think we call these ones 'Golden Orb' ? I don't mind Spiders so much - as long as they keep to their side of this screen ;) an amazing catch,Jacominchen, it has caught probably an early lunch there, all wrapped up! Good luck with the new bike or sould I say the 'recycled' bike ? LOL take care BB (don't worry re: e-mail - I am also so very busy with life here at present, always helping somebody in need!)

Wow! Just found your homepage. Your fractal work is great, but your photography is simply outstanding. Love your work!!!
SUper shot of this spider and its lunch :-)
Wow, what a spectacular shot of this handsome spider. He looks very scary and ready to pounce on his next victim. Although I too am not a fan of spiders I really have to admire her beauty. Wonderful nature shot, well done. Congratulations on your new wheels! I expect you will be zooming around the country side getting more great shots.
Beautiful spider, and you captured it perfectly. Fantastic details and colors.
