These guys guarded my Tomatoes last season. Their leg span was about the size of a Silver Dollar. They laid 2 egg sacs the size of golf balls in my tomatoes. The new spawn has hatched and are setting up shop in this years veggies. Those are Yellow Jackets in the one web.
Anyone know the name of these spiders? There is a park in my area that has a large foot bridge and the setup shop there. Ive seen them attact some large bees before!
