I found this spider on a trail at Oconee State Park in South Carolina. I knew it was a funnel web spider and decided to coax it out with a stick. Wow! This thing was about an inch and a half big. Dark grey/black with red rings on its legs. Never seen anything like it! The only thing I could find on the web (that looks just like it) is the Sydney Funnel Web spider. I doubt it could be that, so I\'m hoping someone here can ID it for me. Thanks!
