Comments & ID Thoughts
Any ideas? I have several pictures of this spider but can only seem to upload 1. It's currently living under my kitchen windowsill. This is only the 3 time i have seen it out from underneath the sill. It usually sits just underneath on its web. It's been there since last summer. Could it be a faux widow? Any help identifying the species is greatly appreciated. Thanks
