Brand New "What's that Spider?" Thread [Free spider pic inside!]

My wife found this friend setting up shop on the outside of our door to our deck this morning:

Apparently my spider google-fu is exceptionally weak -- almost as weak as my desire to look through spider pictures on the Internet.

Lighting the @Arch @BugBoy signals as is expected for these threads...

    You'll probably want to take a picture of the other side of the spider.

    maybe some sort of orb weaver spider

    not a doctor, not a lawyer, examples I use may not be fully researched so don't take out of context plz, don't @ me

    Orb weavers are great because they eat all the annoying flying bugs around.

    Unfortunately they also love to try and build webs over doors and windows so I am constantly brushing them away in late summer/fall.
