Greater European House Spider with egg sac(s) - Tegenaria duellica - Female
Bonney Lake, Pierce County, Washington, USA

I found this one (among many many others) in the wood pile. It has the bottom of one of the pieces of wood completely covered with webbing. When I peeled the webbing off the see the spider, and I also found this egg sac (or egg sacs?).
