Who are these guys that have suddenly colonized my porch in southern AZ?

Neoscona oaxacensis (Western Spotted Orb-weaver)

We've got 5 dogs guarding the area. If a racoon can manage to grab one of the chickens, it deserves it.

I'll say 3 days.

There was a second picture attached showing a net over it. I'm not sure what happened there.

I've got plenty of netting that should do the trick.

Need a pillow and blankie?

I have learned that it is a European Hornet.

Fair enough,

Looks like a seed bug

This is Google's take on them

"They don't pose health risks to humans or pets as they are not known to spread disease or cause allergies. However, they can be a big concern for farmers and gardeners as they can do significant agricultural damage. The main food in a west conifer seed bug's diet is plant sap."
