Nursery Web Spider

Pisaurina mira

Description:

Body was 1/4 inch in length. It was found about 2 feet off the ground.

Habitat:

Found on the edge of path in a wooded area.

Notes:

Looks like it caught itself a meal. You can barely make out the web in the fourth picture. I had no idea it was the same species as my latter spotting.
