banana spiders are a whole different species. nephila clavipes
yeah me too when i was younger. ive always wondered about that since we dont have bananas here and they tend to make their webs on the edges of fields.. felt more appropriate
We have always called them banana spiders
lol Boris eh. im always uneasy when they go missing. lurking somewhere
I was wondering where Boris went to. I hope he is having a good time in your area. LOL (I will have to find my photos of this spider.) HA! Good Spot! They are cool looking.
