    Hi! First time posting....

    We found a large brown spider making a HUGE web on our porch. I grabbed my camera and was able to take a picture of it's underside. There is a distinct marking on it's abdomen that is like a white square with a black "hourglass-looking" shape. Can anyone tell me what it is? I've seen them before and I'm hoping they're the harmless-but-scary-looking type. Thanks for any replies!
