Hi. I can only tell his is a male orb weaver in the Araneidae family. Just can’t peg the genus or species. Not dangerous at all. They will drown if stuck in water too long.

Hi, welcome to Spider ID. ๐Ÿ™‚ This looks like a male Furrow Orb-weaver, Larinioides cornutus.

Youโ€™re welcome, sorry I just realized I made a typo up there and corrected it. Should have read Larinioides cornutus. (Accidently typed Neoscona cornutus because I was thinking of an ID that was left on another thread and combined the two, oops ๐Ÿ™‚ ).
