Garden Spider cont.

Here's a better picture of the Black and Yellow Argiope. I couldn't get a shot from below because he was way too low to the ground. Maybe if I ran video out to a TV, I could blindly position the camera. You can see his zig-zag pattern is more defined this day. He also isn't busy munching on something like the previous shot. They say it's harmless to humans, but I sure wouldn't want this guy crawling on me. He's 2.5" tall by 1" wide. Freaky.
