Orbweaver I think? - Gea heptagon
Altamonte Springs, Seminole County, Florida, USA

I almost missed this little guy. It had a very neatly woven web about 3 inches off the ground. I got a few pics shot real quick before it leaped off the web at my camera. I was very surprised to say the least....

I hope this is enough for an ID. Hopefully it will be back another day for more pics.
