Comments & ID Thoughts
Small female orbweaver on the roof. Many orbweavers have similar dorsal patterns; however, the white yellow longitudinal marking on the ventral side looks distinct. There is a pearl-like string of egg sacs nestled on the web. Maybe Metepeira labyrinthea? Neoscona arabesca? Larinioides sclopetarius? Body length ~ 1/4" - 1/5" (6 - 8 mm).
