Just showing off a new friend

Just found this cute Argiope aurantia on my balcony today. It's built a tiny web between a planter and my fence. I love argiopes and I just hope the wasps nearby don't get it!!

Wish I saw those anymore, but not in my part of the city . Haven’t seen any regular orb weavers either this year. I’ve seen larger ones catch bees .
