Wow, just awesome!
 
I'm pretty sure it's a marbled orb weaver

Ohh ding, I think that's it! Pictures look darn similar. Thanks :)

Are you keeping it? How big is it?
It would be awesome to have a terrarium with some twigs and a nice fancy web with a colorful spider like that hanging out in the center of it.
Yes I am! Outside that is. :-))

My tanks are all taken up and I don't have any tops for them. And before you say it... we don't have a Petco around here :-D

Don't think the little lady would be able to sleep anyways if I brought it inside. I only found it when it started moving and it only did that because I accidentally broke it's web :blush: I'm sure it'll be back out today on a new web, I'll try to get some shots of it posing.
Thanks for the ID!
 
Well he was still out there and had spun a new web but was camera shy today. I really need some funds and get myself a DSLR and macro lens...
Since he was camera shy I snapped a pic of his butt :jester:

Found him out there while I was browsing:

Did you get peed on?

Every time I've caught a toad I get squirted! :D

Me too, every time! That's why I always carry them well away and ahead of my shoes :lol:
 
LOL nope I got lucky I guess. As I reached to grab it my fiancee said 'Don't it'll pee all over you!'
I decided against her advice and grabbed him up before the dogs did and moved him to the other side of the fence. Maybe I'll find something else tomorrow :p

Thanks, just wish I would have had my camera on me to do a nice macro shot. Phone did a pretty decent job though.
