| |  spider id required please
Ok so i know nothing about spiders but was amazed when we found this web outside our house on the weeping willow tree.
It is massive 3ft long and like a tunnel with the spider inside, the spider pretty big too approx 4in but is all curled up inside so its really hard to see any colours on it ect, however it does have thick legs not skinny long ones and looks to have yellow stripes on the legs.
Will post pics as soon as i can work out how to do it??
Any help would be much appreciated
Could it be dangerous????
Many thanks |

Whereabouts are you? Looks more like the web of one of ermine moths - I think I can make out some caterpillars in the photos. |

Not likely to be the work of a spider over here I'm sure. A photo thru' the silk may do ok for i.d. give it a go or better still catch the spider in a glass jar and photograph it.
