Today I checked up on this spider I've been watching for a few days!
Yep- he's still hanging 'round!
He has this elaborate web stretched between
a Magnolia tree and a shed in our east side yard!
This time he didn't scurry away,
I wanted to include this first pic because it shows more of the web.

Here is a closer - up look at my 'spider of the moment!'
( NOTE:This particular spider has only 7 legs! I wonder what happened! )
From what I can determine from my research of Florida spiders, the name of this spider is: Black and yellow argiope spider, Argiope aurantia
