Daddy longlegs
Thanks. That’s what I thought but someone else was saying “That doesn’t look like any daddy longlegs that I’ve ever seen!”.
Not a daddy long legs! This is a harvestman, a separate arachnid from spiders! 🙂
“Harvestman” and “Daddy Long Legs” are both local names for Opiliones, which are indeed arachnids similar in appearance to spiders.

You know what RedMotel? I just learned that Cellar Spiders are also called “Daddy Long Legs”. I just stumbled upon this info so we’re both correct!
