I've been mowing and shredding the pastures since we've returned from our vacation. Not only do I deal with prickly pear cactus spines flying through the air, navigating around trees, getting scratched by mesquite branches, stumps that are hidden, Heat and Sunburn...I have to also deal with these little beauts hanging from the trees and their enormous webs too!
One book I have calls them Argiope Spiders and one book calls them Garden Spiders. They're harmless but gigantic and if you are not expecting one in your face it can be unnerving...These photos were all taken in one tree. There were 5 different ones hanging from this tree...
Possibly a male visiting a female?
See her eyes...cool!
Bet y'all just missed my critter photos lately :o)

Very nice photos...but I don't like spiders very much. ;D
Ewwwwwww! Your photography, as spectacular as it is, can't make a spider look good!! They are just gross, especially close up!! :)
