Hi, welcome to Spider ID. 🙂 You found an lovely orbweaver, Araneus guttulatus.
Note to admin.: Species page needed for Araneus guttulatus.
Why is it so almost like see though and green I looked them up they don’t really look like this (not saying I don’t believe you lol) I figured maybe a molt or something maybe????
They are a green species, not sure what you saw. It’s probably good camouflage.

I just also found one and uploaded a photo of it on here, but I’m brand new at this
