Amazing ๐Ÿคฉ

That spider is so huge. It gives me chills. Is it a wasp spider?

We call them orb weavers around here, they are pretty common.

Oh normally they would be smaller right? This one looks massive, especially its thick body and the stripes made me think of it as a wasp spider. (That is the name I guess).

Including the legs, this one is about 3 inches.

Oh that is alot smaller then I tought.

My 11yo wants to know what kind of spider that is, if you know

We call them orb weavers around here, not sure about the scientific name.

Send me a static photo and Iโ€™ll tell you ๐Ÿ˜

Thanks for the tip, will look it up๐Ÿ˜Š.

Orb weavers are super cool. I saw this one that caught a catydid (after this picture) at work the other day. The bug was probably 3ร— the size of the spider, they're so impressive and eye catching.
