Backyard Visitor: Awesome Spider!
This incredible spider was hanging out on our window screen the other day, resting and bug catching from a beautiful circular web! She was huge (the size of a quarter with legs all extended- yikes!), with brilliant, hairy orange legs banded in white and black and a bulbous body patterned in yellow and black. I looked her up online and identified her as a spider called a Marbled Orb Weaver. Stunning! Here's the picture of our visitor, slightly unclear since the photo was taken through the window screen. Below that is a photo from the internet.
