Cobweb spider (Enoplognatha ovata)

Found in my garden. These are pretty common little spiders in gardens, where they trap various insects, but themselves do no damage at all. These non-native spiders (a few mm in size), come in a variety of forms, from no red, to all red abdomens.

This one has got a fat tummy so it must have a healthy and nourishing diet!
