@ljm In my front yard in the hosta! and I googled everything I could think of and don't see this particular spider...just calling up the yellow and black writing spider....I want to know what it is. @robv will tell us I'll bet!
@olivetreeann Thanks Ann, I thought not at first as this spider was all black and white and no yellow. but I guess it is a young one..it has grown...and I saw online one that looked more like it, followed that link and they said "juvenile black and yellow argiope." Thanks!
@m9f9l Yep. That is the beauty of cropping! Don't end up with a spider on your face! That spider moved FAST. I shook a blade of grass or something and he FLEW off that web. Ugh.
