Similarly, I thought Jeannie's spider, of course enormously bloated from
being chock full of eggs probably about to be laid, was a Cross or Garden
spider, Araneus diadematus.  This species is incredibly abundant here in
King's County and found most often around the outsides of buildings like
houses and between shrubs or garden plants in residential yards.  Cheers
from Jim

This species, with the very prominent cross on the body is the European
