Well, sort of.. She lives in the cedar tree in the back corner of the
yard and runs and hides every time I get close. She takes her wed
with her, you can see it just behind her.
I have tried all summer to get a good shot, but she was always well
hidden. Finally got a good shot at her and took a bunch. There is
a 40"X32" of this shot on the living room wall.

Here is her story:

BTW; the shot was taken with a Fuji S1000fd

Well Brad, she's pretty large, I'm seeing only in my backyard garden spiders with a cross on there back, We call that ''Kruisspinnen'', you see them only when fall enter.
They are about a half inch. But somewhere hidden in the house are other spiders, we call them roadrunners, pit black hairy spiders with long legs, about an inch big, and superfast. Sometimes I'm seeing such a guy in our livingroom running very fast from one to the other corner, well we are used to see them sometimes, so also a sort of a pet :D

Cheers. Ad
