Mean looking pacman faced spider lol! Was on the outside of my window early morning. Approximately 1 inch long. Looks like a good web maker.

Hi, your little friend is far from mean, This looks to be a cross orb weaver, Araeus diadematus speies.
Not dangerous at all.
These more come out at dusk, Make one of hose fancy webs to cach bugs all night. Come dawn, they may consume their web before hiding out nearby for the day. If she is out of the way, I would leave her undisturbed.
Orb weavers are master architects when it come to making webs, Watching them is better than TV.
