    I would have to say it may be a sewing spider. Nice zig zag stitch. I've never seen on and I hope I never do.

    I think they are beautiful! I've had them in my yard before. I'm sure they are harmless!

    We always called them garden spiders and found them in our tomatoes!! I hated them as a child, but find them fasinating now as long as they are outside.

    I thought spiders have 8 legs. This looks like a big joke to me. If if is no joke, I hope I never meet one of thses guys.

    I've seen webs like this before. The zigzag was very intriguing to me. That spider does have 8 legs.

    We used to get those at our last house. Big and beautiful! And their webs had the zig zag too. Didn't know they are called a corn spider. But no, no interest in running into that web!! UGH!!
