I am a Yellow Garden Spider,

Some people think my web looks like I'm writing

I make a vertical zig zag out of my silk

And catch bugs who think my web looks inviting. 

(I found this beauty in my native plant garden. Tune in tomorrow for the unhappy end of our brief relationship...)

Location: Fellsmere, my yard
