September spiders

 I went to photograph the box & its webs and wasn't too pleased with my
lack of expertise.  Then we found the box hedge with the yew arches
above it have been turned into highrise accommodation all along its
height and length.  This is just one end of it!

That's lovely, Sacha!  They are typical Linyphia triangularis webs.
Other Linyphiids make similar webs, but they are often smaller and fewer.

You also have a good orb web, but it's not clear who made it, but
probably Araneus diadematus.  A structured-in missing segment (not web
breakage) is likely to be a form of Zygiella.  Z. x-notata is the one
most likely to be found near human habitation but, at this distance,
that's barely an intelligent guess!

Watch out for a commendation for bravery in the New Year's honours!:~))

Don't get too enthusiastic, I didn't shake hands with the builders, you
know!  Did one spider make lots of webs or is each web made by an
indvidual (backing away nervously)  I saw my first autumnal house
spider the other evening.  One of those big black things that look as
if it's got boots on.  My heart nearly stopped mid-tick!

If only house went up that quickly we might not be in such a mess right
now! (tho we probably would)

Destroy them all and if you wake up wrapped in web tomorrow they're
working as a team.

One each I should think.
