I have Banana spiders and garden spiders and really all kinds of spiders around my house because I live out in the country but I’ve never seen a spider that looks like this
It was supposed to be alabama not alsaka but it is not letting me change the state. I know that makes a difference
Hi, we know that this is a programming problem that needs to be changed. Our site moderator, Itsy Bitsy can change the state for you when she has time. Yes, this is an orbweaver/garden spider like the others you have. It is a long-jawed orbweaver in Genus Leucauge, probably Leucauge venusta. The common name is Orchard Orbweaver.I think they’re pretty with their shiny legs and colorful pearlescent bodies.
I concur, Leucauge venusta
