This is the ENORMOUS (like, at least 3" tip-to-tip) and frightening spider who has moved into the mint plant on my patio, probably because God does not want me to enjoy a delicious mojito. As far as I can tell, it never moves from the exact center of that web, but I know it's alive because some days there are bugs caught in the web and then the next day or so they will be gone. Unfortunately all photos of it are blurry because my camera also fears spiders.
