Orbweavers (Family Araneidae)Observer
nicolepomeroyDescription
I saw this hanging at the top left corner of my shed. The web was quite large. This spider is one of the biggest I have seen in my residential area, about the size of a quarter. It is a dark/foggy grey-greenish color, with a large hump and has long thick legs. I found out from here that it is an Orbweaver, thank you!
