Argiope aurantia



An Argiope aurantia, commonly known as the yellow garden spider, black and yellow garden spider, golden garden spider, writing spider, zigzag spider, hay spider or corn spider captures a grasshopper in its web on a hillside near Elkton in rural western Oregon on Monday, July 27, 2020. The bite of the yellow garden spider is harmless to non-allergic humans, roughly equivalent to a bumblebee sting in intensity.
