Comments & ID Thoughts
I'm thinking this is a variety of wolf spider but I am not sure because it's coloring is so light. It's body was at least an inch and a half long. Not threatening, I was able to poke its bum to get it to move out of my way. It was just hanging out on the leaves in my irises. I have a few other pictures of it as well.
