OK, so I was bringing the trash cans back in last night and I noticed this beautiful (if a spider can be beautiful) spider on the sidewalk.
It had red legs (kinda' "rosie red") and a grey body. Its spread was about as big as a penny, no bigger than a nickel. Pretty uniform in shape. Nothing unusual. Oval back, nothing portruding from the head. Normal proportions, etc. I have NEVER seen a spider like it before.
I immediately grabbed my camera to take a pic of it but when I came back it was gone. It was only inches from the grass so it probably got in there & disappeared.
Can anybody point to what it might have been??? (I Yahoo'd but didn't come up w/ any pics that it looked like). This is in Southern California, so a U.S. spider.
TIA!!!
