    I found another baby argiope today!  It built its web along the west side of my house in the ivy.  This is the third one I am watching.

    Argiope aurantia (katy k davis [Sep 19, 2007])I have a yard full of these! I love them, so beautiful. I had 6, two of them have disappeared. Left behind a jumble of web and leaves. Babies? I have woods surrounding my backyard, they love it.

    Two ladies at my inlaws, one is in an old horse feed dish laying on it's side, the other in an old calf feed trough.  Both have laid 2 sacs this year.  At last observance, one of the ladies looked fat enough to lay a third.

    Will post pictures when I get them developed.
