I am so glad you started this thread.
In my backyard I have noticed so many spider webs
and different spiders from small to large.
It was freaking me out.
I was bumping into the webs every morning when I
was watering.
I would tear down the webs
never killing the spiders that were in my walking way.
I was worried they might be poisonous.
(If it's a black widow, than I do kill them in my garage)
After reading this thread I went on the internet and
looked up spiders. Thanks to you guys I now know they
are a harmless variety of garden spiders and now I
can enjoy them instead of freaking out.

Here is one variety of spider I took a pic yesterday off.
