Home sweet Home. Spider webs are a familiar sight everywhere inland from ditches to gardens, to inside your house. Spiders are opportunists and will set up camp anywhere they believe they will catch food. In this case, an Orb-web spider has set up his home on a sheer cliff -face down at Baginbun, literally metres away from the crashing waves and in line with the onshore winds. Not to worry, spider web is tougher than both Steel and Kevlar and recently its microstructure was under investigation to see its potential uses for making bullet-proof vests and artificial tendons!
