Following up on yesterday’s post about the spiders that have invaded Bernal Heights, Jacques Vidrine captured this amazing photo of a Bernal Heights orb spinner in action.
UPDATE: Neighbor Jeannie just sent along this photo that shows yet another member of the invasion forces:

Same type of spider was on my window last Sunday. Apparently harmless. http://instagr.am/p/SGlcH/

I thought it was just our backyard filled with these orb spinners. I’ve stopped going back there since I walk into a web every time!
We have MANY of these Arachnid in and about our yard. We have at least a dozen at any given time. This is the first year in over 20 living here that we have had so many. Climate change? Is there a predator missing?
