Neoscona oaxacensis
When the light catches them perched on their webs just right, spotted western orb weavers are one of the more beautiful spiders in North America. Although they're not normally aggressive, they can bite. There's no reason to worry, though -- they're not poisonous to humans.

Thanks , Robby.
I was just looking over the Neoscona genus last night and thought, "I'd LOVE to see N. oaxacensis!" They are so beautiful.
