Spider on post

Spider on post
I was interested this morning to notice this spider on a fence post. The post is about 50mm across, so I'd think the spider's extended length is about 40mm. I was unsure which genus it belongs to, but it seems it may be one of many identified as Tetragnatha species. Best viewed large.

They are normally very well camouflaged, but this spider seems to love being seen. :)

Many thanks, Dan, it seems indeed to be among the Tetragnatha species, though the one you suggest is only in the Northern Hemisphere. It does seem though that there are about 200 more species in that genus - at least that's a broad answer!

Wonderful capture. I like the colors, too.
And I like spiders, but I've been wondering what may be better: spider on post, or spider in post ;-)

I wouldn't be happy getting too close in on this specimen. I did view it large though, with a slight shiver.
