I almost walked face first into this… lovely fellow. Who are they? USA, OHIO.

It’s made the biggest and most intricate web I’ve ever seen in my backyard, I don’t mind it being there. I’ve just never seen this species before and I’m curious.

Found on my college campus in WV

Sorry for somewhat blurry photo, the little friend was right in the middle of the sidewalk and I didn’t have time to get a better one. He/she was about 2-4 inches long and was moving fairly quickly across the sidewalk towards a tree on the other side. Any help figuring out what it is would be great!!
