Found along the Summit Road to Great Blue Hill. There was a lot of webbing on the guard rail. I don't know if it came from this spider or it happened to be there. Nearby there also appears to be egg masses.
Found along the Summit Road to Great Blue Hill. The photos aren't clear enough to see the details. I've made a choice based on what was shown as visually similar.
