Orb spider on broom (Araniella cucurbitina)

Although it is only just February the Broom bushes are starting to bloom welcoming the aproaching  of springtime. The usual thing to see on broom are bees but I found this little Orb web spider hiding away and had to take a picture of the bright colours of plant and spider. Enjoy.  
(Thanks to Brontodocus from the http://animaltoyforum.com/ for the identification.)
