At a low elevation on Mica Peak Conservation area.

One of the very few spiders that can climb up and over the sides of an old ceramic sink. Found on an outside wall.

Another Koch's, but different black markings on its abdomen?

After having a bite from a cat-faced hurt for a few days, I was hesitant about handling this one for better photos.

I hesitated uploading this one because the eyes are not in good focus, and this is before I figured out how to take ventral photos. But I haven't had a similar one visit me in the house since.

In the house. My favorite kind of spider -- it holds still for photos.

VENTRAL photo: what is the white stuff (kind of crown shaped) at the top of the abdomen?

Tiny, see Q-tip for size. Too delicate to maneuver onto my mm tape and to turn upside down.

In the house. My guess, so don't blame AI.

Ten people with 14 dogs on the wetland trail. All dogs taken off leash after beyond the trailhead security camera.

In a wooded area.

Many of the ponderosa pines in my 50 year-old neighborhood have wounds oozing sap. But I have yet to see any larva, so don't know which borer species are doing the most damage.

In a wooded area.

AI's guess. In the dining room.
