Jos, your spider is one of the orb-weaving spiders of the genus Araneus. It is possibly Araneus gemmata: http://canadianarachnology.dyndns.org/data/spiders/14785

If you post identifications to our Bug and Insect Identification Discussion Forum: you will get a much wider audience and are more likelyt to get an exact identification,

Kennedy
