I believe that's a black and yellow argiope. My son (8 yrs old) finds them and puts them in the bushes by our front window and door. They make some nice webs with a little zig-zag pattern in the middle. He also feeds them grasshoppers and tosses them into the web every few days to watch them eat...a real graphic lesson in predator-prey relationships. I'll see if I can get him to try to make one dance!
