Leucauge venusta
Not sure if the spots are truly red or its form the exposure of the shot. Mostly black with metalic green spots.
Between shrubs.
It's web was so fine I almost walked into it. I felt like we were eye-to-eyes for a second:)
After researching the black widows from today I'm wondering if this one could have been a juvenile or male B.W. I read the colors can vary except for the female.
