Orb Spider 0619
With all the webs that I came across yesterday, almost all the spiders were well hidden. Since it was misty, foggy, and damp, I didn't feel like crawling around looking for them. However, this one lady was sitting in the middle of her web cleaning the drops off her legs. She had beautiful color bands on her back. If anyone can tell me what she is, I'd be happy to know. She built an orb web and her body was about 2cm long (not including legs). I love the fuzz around her abdomen.
She's a banded argiope, thanks to Beeblecat for the ID.
