I couldn't move fast enough rescue this poor crane fly - the spider moved like lightning when she felt something catch in the web.
This spider has many names in English - common garden spider, crowned orb weaver, cross spider etc. I know it as Epeire diadème !

Hard though it is to say so but, neither should you. Life in the raw and captured, beautifully, to your usual standard. :D
