Sorry for horrible photo, couldn't resist putting an orange jumping spider on PN...will try to look for same spider today.
Awesome! Those are some nice shots in your spotting! Luckily you were able to get more clear photos than mine.
You and I are the only ones to spot this on Noah so far, jgorneau; see http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/109...
Yay, I'm glad you have an ID! Emma, you're so sweet. We're very fortunate to have such great resources online for the US. I sure enjoy researching and learning from everyone.
Thanks Cindy! I will be sure to make a note of the uncertainty due to the poor quality of the photo I took! Thanks! I will try to take a better pic today!
Hi jgorneau, nice spotting! My ID suggestion is based on the color pattern and your location. I'm not 100% certain as I can't see the fine details of the spider but there aren't any other species reported in NY with those colors at this time.
