Last year we had a large one in a lowish palm tree in a large web. She stayed there all through the spanish summer in extreme heat with no shade. She moved her web a couple of times but it was always in the sun. At the end of the summer she seemed to lose interest in life and her web and just disappeared. I had great admiration for her even though she scared me a bit. I took some photos but not as close as macro would be.
