Moved from Spiders. Thanks. I added your date to the info for the image. This allows it to show up on the data map. You can see the data map by clicking the data tab above.

I'm not sure which Araneus it is at this point, but we may be able to figure it out eventually.

Looks to be an Orb Weaver
It has 'shoulders' such as in the genus Araneus, but we don't recognize it.
