Spiderswhat’s this?
This spider has spun a web outside our patio door and we can’t find a match for it on the internet, any ideas??? It’s about the size of a quarter including leg span. We live in northeast Florida. Thanks for your help!

Hi Tommy,
We frequently get images of female Nephila clavipes, but never a male. The males are about 1/100 the size of the enormous females. These spiders are also known as Silk Spiders or Banana Spiders.
