Comments & ID Thoughts

No clue what kinda this is, very docile, I slightly pushed it with my finger and it didn’t flee or put up its pedipalps. Never seen one like this, maybe it’s just a young version of a common spider?

An eastern parson spider. They are usually quick to avoid toutching with fingers, makes them difficult to catch by hand. Might be raching term of life.
