Spider identification pls
Can anyone help me identify this spider found this morning on the outside wall of our house in San Diego?
It is approximately 1 inch in diameter when it moves.
Thanks in advance!

Looks more like a Mexican Death Spider to me...
but they won't bother you if you don't bother them.

Re: Spider identification pls
Completely off topic, but my brother and I grew up thinking that David Attenborough was our dad.
I wrote to him a few weeks ago and explained that because our dad died when we were little, we had a photo of our dad on top of our grandmothers TV and when DA hosted one of his shows, he looked just like him.
So as DA grew older we imagined that it was how our dad would have looked.
it wasn't until I was in my 20's/ 30's that I said to my brother, hey look Dad's on TV, and he admitted that he though that DA was his "Faux Dad" too - neither of us knew that we'd both thought it.
Anyway he wrote back about 2 weeks ago and said that he hoped he hadn't let us down in the role he'd been unwittingly given.
Nice huh?
