Spiderlings in their nursery

Spiderlings in their nursery

Tiny young spiders of the same species as the female in the previous post, in their enclosed nursery web.

There are two webs here. One, on a ragwort, is the one guarded by the spider in the previous post. The other was on ivy just a couple of yards away. The spiderlings in this web had grown a little larger, and begun to spread out through the web.
