Looks just like when our cross garden spiders started ballooning, except those have a little black dot on their abdomens. Found a large one yesterday I'll try to record. I threw a leafhopper in her web and just when I started walking away, she dropped down and grabbed it.
(no problem)(I'm also doing well)(Thank you for subscribing!) :)
It is charachteristic for Araneus species to group up into those kind of "spiderling balls"
I have seen one of those at a creek and they all grew up to be a type of Shamrock Spider or a Marbled Orb Weaver. However, your mentor could be correct in identifying the spiderlings as Araniella yaginumai. Have a good one!!!
Just incase we are both wrong, if you can, try to follow around the spiderlings and take some video clips of the spiders, or pictures as they grow up.
When they start ballooning, try and slide your hand carefully at them to catch them, and release them into any bush with alot of hiding spots. the next day, they could have spun their webs, and be hiding away in a leaf, but again, it depends. good luck!

I bet there is mother spider underneath. The babies usually hang on to their mother for a while.

thx.
i could not see their mother then.
btw, i've heard that scattered babies will gather again after a while.
i would like to film the process in timelapse someday.

Awesome! They definately look like the common garden spiderlings.

hi there. how are you?
would you tell me the exact name of the "common garden spider"?
just family name would be helpful to me.
they might be spiderlings of Araniella yaginumai of the family Araneidae, my mentor told. but even he was uncertain....
btw, thanx for subscribing!

but i will keep in mind your advice!
