I've been checking in daily with a beautiful yellow garden spider (Argiope aruantia) outside my window at work for a while now and I noticed she laid an egg sac today. If anyone is interested, I could package it up and ship it out to you for the cost of shipping or whatever. These spiders create beautiful webs with these vertical white zig-zag decorations (stabilimentum) and look like they can eat a lot.

This species is considered harmless to humans.

This is not my picture, but it's basically what the spider and egg sac look like.
