Dang IPhone turns them any way it wants to. I actually have 2 of them and they are welcome as long as they want to stay. Took them a little while to learn not to build over the walkway though. Sniper, I too have done the Seizure dance at 5:00 in them morning.

We have a ton of them here as well, most are the orb weavers, a few of the garden varieties around the house as well. Walking through the woods can really suck.

Cool pic. Their webs are very cool, until you walk into one in the dark! I give them a pass whenever I can.

As kids, we'd grab grasshoppers from the yard and hang them in their webs. Kinda harsh on the grasshopper, but the spider put on a fascinating show every time.
Thanks!! Matt
