Orb spider, sits at the top of her web facing up. She seemed to make the web bounce as I was photographing her. Love the striped legs!

Looks like an argiope
Thanks for your reply! From looking on the internet, that’s what I was suspecting. My first time trying to ID a spider. I appreciate the help. Fun! “Argiope trifasciata (the banded garden spider or banded orb weaving spider)”
I believe it is a banded garden spider.
