Pictured is a banana spider, shitloads of them around here. Those are not flying. Looks like this one is making the zig-zag thing some orb weavers make.
Cool fact! They’re also called Golden Orb Weavers because their webs shine gold when the sun hits right.

Bananaspider is quite ambiguous and refers to multiple spiders.
Golden Orb Weaver is the common name for Nephila (which this one is not), though often wrongly applied to Argiope.
This one is Argiope cf. aurantia, which has a bunch of common names including “golden garden spider”, but I prefer “black and yellow garden spider”.
That is Nephila, not Argiope. Argiope are the ones with the zig-zag pattern, though.
