Thanks. It kinda looks like an orb weaver to me too. Here is a close up of its eyes. I think I read somewhere that eyes are a good way to identify spiders, and these appear similar to pictures of Neoscona arabesca eyes I found on the internet. The leaf camouflage posture may be common in orb weavers. I'll pay more attention to the ones I find outside. This one may have accidentally hitchiked into the house.
