Spiny Backed Orb Weaver Spider masterfully weaving a web set to Classical Music. Because of it's stunningly bizarre beauty it is natural that the Gasteracantha cancriformis is called by many names - the star spider, spiny-backed orb weaver, spiny orb weaver spider, crab-like orb weaver spider, crab-like spiny orb weaver spider, crab spider, jewel spider, spiny-bellied orbweaver, jewel box spider, smiley face spider or sometimes in the Philippines, the king. I think of it as the happy smiley-faced spider as it really seems to enjoy its work and is a joy to have around the Backyard! Watch as this beautiful spider fastidiously works its magic set to classical music:
Habanera by Bizet
Solo Cello Passion by Doug Maxwell
Johann Strauss II - The Blue Danube Waltz

When I was a kid, I used to love watching spiders make their webs, I just thought it was so amazing that something so small, with such a small amount of brainpower could create something so complex based purely on instinct.

I completely agree! They make it so tedious, which is why they're so special!

@defence-zone7826 5 месяцев назад

@@kaitlynreynolds5192Spiders exhibit sexual dimorphism that means female individuals are larger (much larger) than their male counterparts of the same species. Take an example of the Giant Orb Weaver Spider that is Nephila Phillips. Search up photos of these spiders mating, along with the larger female, you will spot the much smaller males. Only then will you get an idea about how large these spiders truly are as far as male vs female size is concerned. They are truly magnificent! 😊

We had an Orb weaver outside on our back porch all last summer. When fall came, she disappeared for a while, and one morning I went outside and found her guarding a brand new egg sac! I gave her some leaves and grass to cover the egg sac with and she used them. She has long since passed and we are guarding her egg sac til spring when we will very gently transport it to a safer area, in the forest so it can hatch and the babies will not be running rampant in our apartment :)
