Ignore the dirty window lol. Had them in our house for over a week in that spot now, but this is the first time they turned around. I find the legs mesmerizing
What is this beautiful specimen called?

It's a cross orbweaver or European garden spider (Araneus diadematus).

Seems like some sort of Orb Weaver (where hanging in a web is a clue): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orb-weaver_spider

Over here we call them cross spiders because of the cross pattern on their abdomen

Is everybody just completely misunderstanding what AskLemmy is supposed to be for? Are mods actually doing anything?
