gina replylemm.eeLooks like Araneus diadematus to me. They have a white cross on their abdomen like the one on your photo. Cool spiders (they’re all cool :)4
KKalash replyfeddit.chYep, definitly Araneus diadematus. Very common and great to have around your house. They also have quite a broad range of colours.2
rrediot replylemmy.worldWe hang out on my back porch several times a day, it's actually sad when he's not out on the web.7
ttobogganablaze replylemmus.orgAraneus andrewsi is only found on the west coast. Should be the more common Araneus diadematus.1
