    Big Creepy Spider
    This spider was hanging on a web just outside my screen window, biggest spider I've ever seen in this area. I was only able to get a picture of the underside of it, the top of the spider was brown with white spots/lines in the shape of a cross, the legs were striped as well. Does anyone have any ideas as to what type of spider this is?

    Had to spread the rep, Firmbeliever, but that's her.

    Frostybabygurl, wait until morning and see if she spins a web. It's likely to be huge.

    She's not dangerous, so don't be afraid.

    Watch, take pictures, this is a really cool experience.
