Yes, Uloborus glomosus. The females hide and rest among the egg sacs which are shaped like resting spiders. This is a great photo! It shows the female resting plus she has added silk that is shaped like an egg sac at her posterior. I don’t know if she’s starting another one or if it is to help hide her shape. The photo also shows cribellate (fuzzy) webbing. AND it shows that the egg sac spikes are where the sac connects to the straight threads of the orb web.

I was guessing Uloborus too
