Nice ventral shot of a black and yellow garden spider.
Species Argiope aurantia – Black and Yellow Argiope – BugGuide.Net
Its so colorful and the web has a yellow tinge. Do you think it could be a joro spider
I didn’t compare with the Joro spider so very well could be.
After a good look, I see I was wrong.
Nephila clavata (Joro spider) – Trichonephila clavata – BugGuide.Net
That doesn’t happen that often Dan. That reverse is familiar to me because I once got the scale all wrong and confidently identified it as a Tetragnatha. oops
Well, hey, even I make mistakes.
Thank you
