Description
Nursery web spiders, Pisaurina mira is one, make a web for their eggs when they are ready to hatch, guard them until they hatch, then hang around until the babies are ready to leave home. Their color is variable, but most of them around our area are a grayish brown. This handsome orange/brown is not common. This picture was taken September 2, 2008. We just saw a couple more this year (September 2011).
