I love spiders

It might be a Asagena medialis spider.

TangledWeb

I’m not sure which one it is. it would be helpful if you can upload a photo showing the spider’s topside. That’s where most of the markings on spiders are. It can be uploaded as a new submission. It doesn’t have to be the exact same spider. There could be more than one, like you said. Your photos will stay together in your account. To see all the photos someone has posted, click username, then the camera icon.

Asagena medialis is just another type of cobweb spider..I don’t think this is one….
I really think there is a good chance this is an immature widow spider… so be careful in your quest to get a better picture. Juveniles are not as dangerous to humans….but there could be an adult there too

I agree with Tangledweb. It is not possible to identify your spider from this angle with all the shadows……however I am going to give u a link to a photo of an immature western black widow….see what you think….it has the right shape…..it has bands on its legs like your spider and the little bit of pattern I can see matches…..and it would be unusual for a spider to move from web to web……leaving the original web intact…..its more likely you are seeing different spiders at different times…
