Hi, yes they’re weird-colored. Looks like a joro spider, Nephila clavata. They are orb web spiders, which is another term for “garden spiders .” They aren’t dangerous, they’ll only bite you in self-defense if they feel their life depends on it. Enjoy the weird spiders and let them eat the insects for you 🙂
