Hi JoeMurgo. I wish I'd put a reference item in. I will look to see if I had another image. Excellent suggestion! Wish I had done it! Next time for sure!
Thanks Ashley T, JoeMurgo, and AntonioGinjaGinja for all your help! I'm identifyinh this spider as Wolf Spider because I know we have a lot of them here and when I looked for the characteristic violin design couldn't make it work. Thanks, again, all!
Certainly not a brown recluse, looks like a wolf spider
What is the size on this?
Thanks, AntonioGinjaGinja! I will follow your advice.
