A spider in its orb web
Orb web spider. An unidentified spider sitting in the middle of its web. This type of web, known as an orb web, is aimed exclusively at catching flying insects. An average orb web may contain 20 metres of silk fixed at 1, 000 junctions, yet still weighs less than half a milligram. The web needs constant renewal as its threads become damaged by prey, and the adhesive properties of the viscid, sticky spirals are reduced after a couple of days. Photographed on a peat bog in British Columbia, Canada. Science Photo Library features Science and Medical images including photos and illustrations. © KAJ R. SVENSSON/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intricate world of a spider in its orb web. The unidentified spider sits gracefully in the center, showcasing its mastery over this finely woven creation. The orb web, designed exclusively to ensnare flying insects, is an engineering marvel composed of 20 meters of silk fixed at 1,000 junctions. Astonishingly, this delicate masterpiece weighs less than half a milligram. The constant renewal of the web is necessary as prey damages its threads during capture.

In this photograph from Science Photo Library's collection on nature and zoology, we witness both beauty and functionality intertwined seamlessly within nature's realm.
