These guys are really cool, if you stay around long enough....they bounce on their webs like a trampoline. I get a few cousins to that species every year right outside my front door.

I was walking my dog a couple of weeks ago and we left the path and went through the woods. I ran face-first into one of these. I'll admit, there was a few seconds of freak-out.

Right into one??? Oi, I may like to watch them up close, but an unexpected spider to the face and I'd have a more than a few seconds of freak-out! Hahaha
