Spring-like today and sunny; opened a window to air a room and spotted this Steatoda nobilis - noble false widow spider. They are not native to the UK, but are thought to have arrived from the Canary Islands in banana boxes in the 19th c. #noblefalsewidow #britishspiders #spiders

Close-up macro of a noble false widow spider hanging in its web beside a weathered wooden surface, the abdomen sharply detailed and legs extended, lit by a headtorch against a dark background.

A Noble false widow, Steatodo nobilis, with a shrunken abdomen, which makes me wonder whether she’s recently laid eggs.

Spring greenhouse preparation: always-present walnut orb-weavers and (this) #noblefalsewidow #spider reduce pests and are welcome additions to my garden fauna… but I wear gardening gloves when tidying.
Despite predators, common #plumes fly in the greenhouse all year round!
