Spenser Little tree plant
Little tree plant commented on by Spenser Gampaha, Western Province, Sri Lanka3 years ago

I'm not familiar with plants in your location, but the flowers look like those of the wood sorrel family (Oxalidaceae)

Spenser Spider spotting
Spider spotting commented on by Spenser Derekegyház, Hungary3 years ago

It's not fully grown yet, so it's hard to tell for sure. The shape of the abdomen resembles Diaea, but it may also be a juvenile Ebrechtella tricuspidata.

The fourth photo is the easiest to see the cross mark on its back, where it's latin name "crucifer" comes from.

Spenser Jumping Spider

Looks like a jumping spider (Salticidae)

This is a spider, not a daddy long leg.

Eye separation and tail shape suggests clubtail rather than a darner.

Sarcophagidae

Spenser Wandering Spider
Wandering Spider commented on by Spenser Peñas Blancas, Provincia Alajuela, Costa Rica3 years ago

Looks closer to a huntsman or trap-door spider than a tarantula (Theraphosidae)

Looks like L. cornutus to me too

Looks like a young male Lyssomanes viridis. You're probably not going to find the green huntsman (Micrommata virescens) in North America- it has a European range. Green lynx males have larger palpal bulbs, and legs are generally a more yellow color and hairier than your picture.
