Silver garden spider, Argiope argentata. I spotted this beautiful, silvery spider sparkling in the bright Summer sun. As it turns out, they pack a bit of a bite. For most people, the painful bite will sting and itch for about an hour. However, the bite can be more serious for kids and the elderly. Their range extends from the Southern U.S. down to Argentina, with a preference for hot, dry climates.
