Golden orb weaver spider

Bringing to mind Tolkien's Hobbit and Lord of the Rings, on Creef Cut Wildlife Trail, Alligator River National Wildlife Refuge you might see a massive 4 foot diameter spider web and the large, palm-size spider that constructed it. A banana spider refers to several different variants, one of which is a golden silk orb weaver spider, which this might be.
