Hey Just wanted to know what kind of spider this is..??

I've never seen this kind! I'm only posting one picture, but I do have others...

Thanks!! :D

(It was found in the Ottawa-region area thing... I carried it home on a leaf for about 15 minutes and it was a really windy day... It's been a while since that many cars slowed down to see what the heck I was doing)

Yes that is an Orb-Weaver(sp?), there are many species, I dont even know them all..LOL.. I keep about 9 of them..I keep them cause my parents well not let me keep reptiles at the moment..but its all good.. I love all arachnids, reptiles, dont ask why. But yes that is a species of Orb-weaver.

That's an Araneus species, probably diadematus (on the photo the spider is a bit lighter in colour than the average diadematus, but I've seen them almost white)
