I've been watching this girl at work for a week or two now. I figured I better get some shots before cold weather sets in. She has been constantly working on her little bundle of joy.;)
Both pictures have been rotated 180 dgrees for better viewing and a slight crop.

Moms, yah just gotta love em.
If anyone can ID this girl it would be nice.

C&C welcome.

Thanks Joan. I work as an auto technician (grease monkey).;)
We have a parking lot that's got a bunch of wild flowers and old cars sitting in it, so there's lots of bugs and little critters.
This one is my favorite though. She's a real beauty.

Thanks Bernie, Mike, mj, Greg and Pete.
We've got more in the shop yard but they are almost impossible to get to.
This one was the only one of about 6 in the yard with the striking colors.
The others look almost the same but not quite. Plus the others are in places that I dare not kneel or lay down.:lol:

lovely shots- is she a species of Lynx spider - the eye formation looks right?

Thanks Toby. I wish I knew what she is. Those eyes just look great at the right angle. I think I'll do a search on Lynx spider and see what I get.

Toby, you are the man. It is indeed a member of the Lynx family.
Peucetia/ something I think.
You really seem to know your bugs sir. Thanks again.

Thanks digger, from what I've been reading the babies may be along in a few weeks. Now I've really got to keep an eye on her.:)
