Please crop your images to a rectangle
that is essentially 'just the bug'. While you, as the contributor, can click on this image and see the full size 2000 pixel image you uploaded, the rest of us are restricted to this 560 pixel reduction which is about 5% spider and 95% unhelpful log.
Click on Edit here and Browse to the cropped image to replace this one.
The spider will likely turn out to be one of the Dolomedes
