This would be either Leucauge venusta, the Orchard Orb-weaver, or Leucauge argyrobapta, the Mabel Orchard Orb-weaver.
Wow thanks for the quick reply. Its in a huge web that i’ve never seen before. The colors are also really distinct, to me anyway.
Yeah, it’s a really cool spider. To differentiate between the two species that might be in your area, you would have to look at the ventral markings. Red/orange markings on the underside would indicate Leucauge argyrobapta.
