      Summary Author:  John Blodgett   
      
      Shown above is what I believe is the  web of the spiny backed,   
       orb weaver spider. I noticed it beneath a white pine tree and used   
      my iPhone 7 to take this picture on the morning of August 22, 2022. The   
      overall web is over 12 inches (5 cm) across, and the outer diameter of   
      the tighter weave is about 8 inches (3 cm). This spider ranges far and   
      wide across the U.S. and tends to construct its web in  shrubby   
      garden areas as well as the edge of woodland.
