Silk Spider (Trichonephila clavipes) || 10% to shy-fox
When I was about to leave the hunting spot, I accidentally noticed a silk spider or golden silk spider, hanging in its web. silk spider (Trichonephila clavipes) commonly build their webs in an open sunny field that can protect them from the wind. This spider can be sighted around the edge of the swamp, reservoir, and the eave house where they can safely spread their web and reside at the center of the web waiting for prey to be trapped in it. The spider will leave the web in one location for they move to another location in the early season, which probably wish to find better protection or hunting.
Well, I noticed it was alone without having a prey in its mouth. I wish I could find the back position but I could not manage to do so due to the thick bush behind it. Silk spider is included as common species that often attracts our attention due to its look, striking black, and white or yellow pattern, and relatively large size.
Mature females are found late into the fall, when they make at least two large eggsacs 2.5 to 3 cm in diameter consisting of several hundred eggs surrounded by a basket of curly yellow silk.source
