Oh, I see...
So, this is the large version of all those spiderlings I posted last month b/c I see they've been moved to the guide. Neat! :)

Compare with Jeff's image here. Nice find! I would love to get some shots of one of these.

Cool
Thanks. I would not have known the name, so thanks. I've seen a good number of this species along my cedar wood fence in the back yard. :)
