August 19, 2009 – Like the recent spider video I posted last week, I returned to the same location this afternoon in northern Palm Beach County. Once again there was numerous Yellow Silk Banana Spiders up and down A1A in Jupiter, FL. The steady breezes from former Tropical Storm Ana that was passing through South Florida today, had most of the spiders hanging out in more sheltered area’s of the Sea Grape trees. Above is a single picture of a large spider on the center of her web. I plan to edit and post a series of pictures from today sometime later this week. This photo was taken with a Canon EOS 5D.

    I need to find my old Banana spider photos from Black Point down in Miami….those things are huge but cool as hell.

    Should I be worried? I have at least one of these spiders in my yard. It’s freaking me out! I was thinking of calling the Busch Wildlife Sanctuary to come and take it.
