Marbled Orb Weaver

A beauty for sure! If you leave it alone, you can watch it spin a new web every evening! A truly fascinating process, and very precise. My hubby and I used to have one on our front porch years ago. We'd sit outside and just watch. And swat mosquitoes. But mostly watch her (?) meticulously measure out the precise distance between each row with her legs before sticking the silk in place. Take some time to observe her. Gave me a new respect for these amazing critters! :)
