not an itsy, bitsy spider
Meet the Argiope aurantia commonly known as the Black and Yellow Garden Spider. These large spiders – the female can grow to three inches in diameter – are fairly common along the edge of wetlands and open fields in Delaware. Their large webs can be more than two feet across.
