Another backyard spider

This is another in a series of posts by a few of us who enjoy photographing critters we find in our houses and yards. This shaggy little guy (he was about 3/8″ long) was posing on a screen on my back porch. I don’t claim to know enough about spiders to tell you anything about him (Click on the photo for more detail):

    If this spider ever jumped, it might be a Phidippus…a furry, jumping spider with similar coloring, except they're usually slightly darker. We get them all the time here in Cali.
