It's hard to ID them I think, I've just uploaded a spotting of Pardosa sp., but I don't know the specific name for sure..

Yea it being a Wold Spider is about all I figured out haha. Also have the inverted version of this one that needs an ID. Same size but white with a darker body

This is kind of Wolf Spider, but there're many genera and thousands of species! :)
