Been watching this spider build webs that are huge spanning 3-4 feet. Storms destroy the web and he starts over. I noticed he hadn’t moved from a broken web far a whole day. He was dead. What kind of spider is it?
Hi.your he is a she, a spotted orb weaver, Neoscona species.
If she has made her egg sac(s) it would explain just dying. They often die with the firs frost of winter.
