## Caption

One of the reasons I love macro photography is because I get to see the world close up. Today I got to see this #OrchardSpider which is a species of #OrbWeavers. Because I don’t know too much about them, I chose to read up on them. 

Some things I learned about them are:

🌈 they have a vibrant appearance. The females (which I believe this is) exhibit vivid greens and yellows to iridescent blues and purples. Males possess more subdued hues and longer legs.

🎶 When a male approaches a females web, he will carefully pluck the threads to create a unique pattern, a love song of vibrations. If she is receptive, she will begin a dance. While I haven’t witnessed it, i read this and it sounds quite unique.
