I saw this rather large spider on my porch. It’s about 3/8 of an inch excluding the legs. I have no idea what type of spider it might be, but it was willing to pose for me. Click on it for a larger image.

This late season visitor appeared while I was refilling the humming bird feeders. It was early in the morning, when the cold blooded ones move slowly. I got right up to him and snapped this. The background colors are blue sky and the overhang of my garage, quite out of focus and interesting. Click on the image for a larger view.
