Our buddy the garden spider
Aug 20th, 2007 by Robo
We have a black & yellow garden spider (Argiope aurantia) living in the burning bushes by the south side of our house. My son and I enjoy feeding it Japanese beetles and watching the spider mummify them. It is even more enjoyable than feeding them to the Guinea keets. Unfortunately, there are more than enough Japanese beetles to go around. Here is a short video clip of the spider in action.
