Black and Yellow Garden Spider

Argiope aurantia

I found this female black and yellow in our garden today. She is one of the largest that I have seen of this species. In my opinion, they are one of the most beautiful of the spiders we see in Pennsylvania.

She is a beauty, but I hope I never come across one! :)

Yes, I agree. These spiders are very, very beautiful, as is this very fine shot. Now is a great time to find them. VV
