Never saw one of these before.

Spotted this critter while watering the flowers this morning. Really beautiful spider with a body about 1/2" long and 1 1/2" from tip of front leg to tip of back. Not a big deal but my 1st time seeing one.

Saw a huge one of those over in Ennismore about 10 years back at the soccer fields. A first for me. Don’t recall ever seeing one in Toronto in my many years there.

Lewski!

It's been a while, was thinking about you the other day passing through your current homestead on the way north.

Happy to see you here.   Hope things are well.

Really nice to hear.  I will take you up on that, we can talk shop even though you are retired (fire and some fishn) 

Salmon hunt just finished so we'll be heading up that way more soon

Very nice picture Lew, I've never seen one either, nice clarity It sure has some size to it. Here is a poor picture of one that took up residence in the back yard last summer. If you guys can, zoom in on it, you won't believe it, I wouldn't want this guy crawling around in my bed sheets, or any where else for that matter. And another creepy bug at a fishing, hunting camp that flew in the door one night.

I saw one of those in my garden last year for the first time. Freaked me out a bit for sure. I dang well stayed clear of it. Harmless or not, big spiders are kinda gross (in my opinion...there may be some weirdos out there who are enthralled by them)
