What a surprise. Last week, I found the web of Nephila pilipes first time in about 3 - 4 years. Today she was still there and I looked for he boyfriend and sure enough, he was hiding in the corner of the web.
I only saw one emboli injector - so I suppose he has already mated but managed to escape almost-certain death and will try again
A drop of morning rain near the emboli injector

A dorsal view of the mail
Another view
The lady of the web
My favorite - Melastoma
Morning glory - with morning rain
Yellow flower
And a couple of crab spiders
Another view
A different crab spider
