She needs a name
(lemmy.world)
She's been hanging out by my garage for a few weeks now. I've fed her a few random bugs. I feel like I should name her. Any suggestions?
Probably a banded garden spider, or perhaps an orbweaver, they get really colorful. Both are pretty common in Minnesota. Here's some examples of Orchid Orbweavers, which often have a lot of bright green coloration. https://usaspiders.com/leucauge-venusta-orchard-spider/
Neat! Those do both resemble it, but it looks more like the photo here in terms of shapes and color patterns.
It's a Joro spider, Trichonephila clavata.
Was trying to help the parent poster find the spider he saw in Minnesota, USA.
