In keeping with the "Spider" theme that has been trending.... Allow me to present Zelda.
Zelda is a common Garden Spider, sometimes known as a Corn Spider, or for the "Charlottes Web" fans a Writing Spider.
She has webbed in front of my house between some small shrubs and some Ivy. She's about 4" long in these pics fom tip to tip. Though pretty scary looking, she's totally harmless.








This pic was taken a few weeks ago. Notice the zigzag web that I guess inspired the writing spider moniker



Thought she was too pretty not to share.
