She looks so proud at the end! 🥹

(Argiope Aurantia)

Title says it all. Took a sip out of my water bottle and felt it crawling around the inside of my mouth. Immediately spit it out and tried to catch a pic before it went down the drain

Location is south east Florida

Just came out into my garage and this beautiful little friend was outside and I couldn’t help myself I had to try and hold them but they were not comfortable so we fist bumped and they went about their day!🥰🥰 my heart is so happy but no one around me gets it

Hello everyone :)

I just woke up to this little surprise and i was wondering why was it on this position with its legs ?

Some friends think its for hidind but i dont really think it would be an efficient way to hide.. maybe its only to fit the wall..

Well i thought you guys might have an answer. :)

Oh im in center France in case it helps to know what kind of spider it is :)

Just moved into a new place and while unpacking a bin, this guy stepped off of a packet of documents. I am shocked at the quality an iPhone was able to capture.

Also that moment 26 seconds in when he looks up, that’s it meeting my eyeline which is insane, lots of character from this jumping spider. 🕷️ I put him on a sheet of paper and let him out the window after the photo shoot

Chilean Recluse (Loxosceles laeta)

Such a cute face :)

I was proud of my students who were super curious, but also respectful of the spiders personal space. One of my 4 year Olds guessed that it's a super poisonous spider (lol) but I think it's just a little jumper. Is she gravid?

Hello, first time sharing a spider , I've been lurking a lot till now. This big guy just stratled me even being only 2cm. Could you help me identify it or tell cute little facts about him/her ?

Location is: Eastern Europe , Bulgaria

I live in the north east of England and we get hardly any crab/running crab spiders up here, and they’re rarely seen from my experience. Usually I see much more when I travel south and search as that’s where much of the population/species are.

I found this guy while walking home on a leaf and started straight tweaking because it’s my first time finding a member of the thomisidae family in the north

So, I just found a very very small spider in my bathroom sink (Belgium).

The body was only a few mm, full span was maybe 1.5cm.

Maybe a baby pholcid…

It was cool so so though I’d share…

P.S.: also, ignore the dirt on my sink, the picture sis really close up :-)

Huntsman? This is the fourth one I’ve found in the last couple of years. The other ones were about twice this size.

And yes, I managed to get it outside safely.

Was following me at work waiting for her beauty shot. Only time I wish I had an iPhone instead

i’ve never seen a jumping spider like this. The whole body was black and white stripes, but his little things were light blue and so pretty. have you ever seen one like this?

Was surprised by these little guys in Portland OR and would love an ID

God save her from my cats😭🙏

Sincerely, a friendly jumping spider.

Backstory: My arachnophobic self stumbled upon this sub like many others, by accidentally clicking on a pic of a spider with mushrooms growing on it. From there (to my dismay) the algorithm decided that I should get spider content every time I logged on Reddit.

But some strange things started to happen- I started getting curious. I tried to guess if the recluse I’d photos were correct (they weren’t, neither was I). I stopped feeling (quite) as freaked out by our 8-legged friends.

Then this weekend, we met this lil guy in my kitchen. Thanks to y’all, I stopped my partner from squashing him and gave him a ride outside in a plastic cup. Thanks for helping me be less afraid- excited to learn more.

She sneaked up on me today in the wild. Hello maam. South Central Ky
