Canon 7D, 100mm Macro Lens
This Australian Import was sunning itself on my windowsill. It's an Australian Swift Ground Spider, also known as the Spotted Swift Spider or the Wasp Mimicking Spider. They don't spin webs, rather they run full speed and catch their prey that way. They don't usually sit very still. A bite from them isn't nice, but won't kill you. They are found in the Nelson Marlborough region of New Zealand only.
