An orb weaver spider (Araneus gemma) in its web.

Orb weaver spider (Araneus gemma) eating its web as it climbs back to its daytime hiding place under the eaves of a house. Each morning this spider completely consumes the elaborate web it constructed the night before. Each evening it builds another beautiful web and waits patiently in the center until the following morning.
