This somewhat portly matron used to hang out around the edge of our fish pond,under a rock ledge by the waterfall, but I haven't seen her for about three months now...she was about three inches in diameter (including the legs) when this picture was taken...and no, I didn't actually measure!

Wow! What an awesome spider, and a great photo. Where are you located? That looks a lot like a tarantula, or something in the same family.

If I had spiders like that around my place, I might be more of an indoor type! 8O
