ID?

Current name is Frank the bin spider, but I don't know his family name.

Araneus diadematus I think, European Garden Spider.

Thanks.

Should probably pop back down to the bins and explain the Brexit situation.

Thanks & fair point.

Did mean to add location, Scotland, but my son kept shouting Frank....which on reflection is probably less useful than longitude and latitude.

Thanks. Frank's still fine, kid won't bend to gender normative naming nonsense 😂

Reminds me of trying to fix my friends' dads' PC over the phone years back:

Q: "Are you sure you have shut all the windows Billy?"

A: "Of course I've shut all the bloody windows, it's December"

Bathroom location maybe more helpful for the mycology ID's :)

Spider ID rant on a spider community seems pretty reasonable.

I might not know much, but now I do know not to shout 'brown recluse' if I see a brown spider rounds these parts :)
