Had been spotting range of spider webs dangling along the scrap lying in the society, until I spotted a few of these hairy beauties. This particular one had been temporarily taken refuge in a sack, probably got disturbed by my presence, might have accidentally touched or tampered its web. The pose was as if it wanted to hide its face beneath its legs. There were a few others near the parking lot busy building their nets, probably getting it ready for the night feast(spotted them in late evening)

Nice sighting of this species. One eye can be seen in between the legs. Good details. Thanks for sharing.

It looks like Neoscona sp. Further ID would require a better shot of the abdomen pattern.
