I have to go with Netty on this one. I don't mind the little daddy long legged spider but when it comes to those large hairy big ones, like yours, I'll just let you keep it there with you, Thankyou very much. ewwww, eeeeek.

Where are those spiders usually found? Would they be in the average yard, or would you have to go into a more wooded area? I love to find spiders of all types around my yard, that was quite a discovery.

I am glad it is in the woods and not in my house too!

Cuatro-gatos - I found it in the woods. I do not think it is poisonous but I make sure I stay a distance away.

Thank you for all your compliments.
