        That’s the one! Used to catch them as a kid briefly and put them back in their web. I always made sure spiders didn’t get harmed. Cool little guys.

      Good news: It’s not the size of a pop-tart.

      Bad News: Cherry cobbler.

        That is the female spider just from underneath. This is what I found when looking for what male vs female look like. OP’s picture is also a female and I still love her 💚

        https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isoxya_tabulata

        The female spiders, especially orbweavers, always look way cooler than the males. I had a argiope argentata in my yard last year that looked like she had a skull for an abdomen, she was massive and the male was so tiny that it was hard to get a clear picture of him!

        Male:

          Actually, I just remembered I found a different male near the front door and grabbed a better picture with the macro lens for my phone. He was really small!
