Found this healthy spider in my backyard, just hanging out. It seems pretty aggressive, and if I remember correctly her build is of a poisonous spider?
I have more pictures if needed.

This appears to be an immature female western black widow spider (Latrodectus hesperus) - see http://tinyurl.com/oolbz2 for more information. The bite of this spider is indeed potentially dangerous.
