Photo Adventures with Curiosity and Learning

I casually visited my spider place, thinking not much would be there. I was not disappointed. I found only a single Nephila but, surprise, there were 2 or perhaps 3 miagrammopes

Here is a view - rolling a ball of spider silk - or how to control tension in her web?

At first I thought this was a super long Miagrammopes but after review of the digital image, I think that this is two. Are they mating?

Here is a view from the other side. Clearly, there is a single strand holding them up

Nearby, a small Nephila was busy weaving her web
