I haven't seen this spider in my garden, but I remember them from my childhood. They'd spin webs in the tomato plants, and in between the rows of soybean where I'd run right into them while walking beans!

Great banner, Casey! Thumbs up
Yes, I've only seen them a few times here in my life,
but they are very elegant spiders.

Can we please see the whole image?
