St Andrew's Cross Spider

 

St Andrew's cross spider (Argiope versicolor), possibly with a prey* seen to hurriedly cart away on its back when I closed in for better shots.

* From AI Overview

A cross spider wraps its prey in a silken "cocoon" after it becomes entangled in the web, delivering a paralyzing bite and then swathing the victim in silk for later consumption. This process preserves the prey, which is eaten by the spider when it is ready to feed.

Weaving across the leaf, and what a web!

Possibly lying awaiting preys as it was motionless for more than an hour already.
