Unique horned spider in my garden

20210408_165022.jpg


Spiders are unique animals, A few days ago I found spiders in orange and black. I noticed that there is a net around it as a nest. Besides being unique, it also has a small, almost invisible body. This spider is at least a bit shy so I didn't get the face shape.

I captured several times with the smartphone camera that I brought. Sometimes you have to try over and over again to get the right object. I hardly ever see this species of spider. Looking for references on google it turns out that this spider has a scientific name, namely Gasteracantha hasselti.

Usually spiders have large eyes but in this species they are not very visible. The loud horns are very careful to touch. Spiders are generally predatory animals and a web-like nest for trapping other animals.
