Field Notes

Description:

This brown spider was about 5 cm across with the legs. It didn't wait around for me to take a detailed series, only a shot of it walking away.

Habitat:

Unknown vine at night in the backyard.

Thanks Maria! I wish it was more cooperative but I guess I wouldn't care for someone shining a headlamp in my face either :)

Thank you Satyen! We have one recorded species in the area but it has a flat, round head with a dark pattern. It's on my list of spiders to find! Thank you for the suggestion though :)

Lovely click! Not sure if it is a Huntsman spider.
