OAK SPIDER

This spider (Aculepeira ceropegia) is named after the characteristic pattern on the back of abdomen, which strongly resembles an oak leaf. It lives in meadows that are not often mowed, always in sunny areas. It weaves a wheel-like web among the grasses or in the lower branches of bushes bordering on the meadow. It awaits its prey in the middle of the cobweb, where the silk threads are at their densest. Oak Spiders can be seen in late summer, when they are sexually mature and select the place to weave their webs.
