Minus Some Legs

Argiope spider beside the trail around Creekfield Lake in Brazos Bend State Park

 

It appears to be missing two legs. Spiders have the ability to regenerate lost legs, but not after their last molt. This spider may be nearing the end of its life, so the missing legs may not grow back.
