Arrow-shaped Micrathena Spider

I found this little guy hiding on the backside of a bush this morning, he really freaked me out, lol. I wish I could've gotten a front/face shot, be he hid from me.

Excellent shots and the identification. You make me proud!!! . Great detail!!!!

Thanks Bluesy! Not quite as good as I was hoping, but his web was huge and I had a hard time working around it. I was definitely excited when I saw it...and kinda scared because I didn't know what it was, lol.

Beautiful color and amazing detail

Wonderful captures Ace.

Thanks! It was an Arrow-shaped Micrathena Spider...also known as "creepy!!", lol.

With that warm winter we had in the northeast, I've been seeing some new strange spiders around here in central, NY. Thank god nothing like that though.
