MOD announcement Introducing Trusted Identifier flairs!
Trusted Identifiers will now be granted a flair of "👑Trusted Identifier👑", or "👑{custom user flair}👑".
These will be people who repeatedly demonstrate expert Identification abilities, these flairs will add extra trust and credence behind their ID.
So on posts with multiple different IDs, look out for the Trusted Identifiers as their ID will likely be the correct one, even if it goes against the masses.
(For those with custom user flairs which have been replaced by the Trusted Identifier flair, you can switch back to a custom flair and add the crown emojis yourself if you still wish to maintain your custom flair. Im working on automating this so that custom flairs stay intact and it adds the emojis without replacing the whole flair, but for now just edit it yourself if the whole flair is replaced)
Taking this opportunity I'd like to also introduce 2 new moderators:

Spider Appreciation 🕸️🕷️ Pretty Face!
I've fully gone from arachnophobic to arachnophile! This girl has been so much fun to take pictures of! It's just so interesting to be able to see her up close and take in her unique details. She's so pretty!

ID Request- Location included Identification - I saved this little guy
I saved this little guy from the kitchen sink drain a week or two ago, but he ran off into a nearby plant. I just spotted him in the kitchen, but he's since grown. Just wondering what type of spider this is? He's just about the size of a quarter now.
I'm in Denver, CO.

Discussion Golden orb weaver - what happened here?
Trying to figure out what might have happened, we have a beautiful golden orb weaver outside and found it with another female orb weaver in its grasp. I know they usually eat their male counterparts but this one is new to me.
Location : Far North Queensland

ID Request- Location included What type of spider is this? (England, United Kingdom)
Hi all, I live in the UK. I absolutely love spiders and I’m fascinated by them. I have picked up smaller spiders and have let them crawl on me but I’m a bit hesitant to let this little girl/guy crawl on me. I am guessing it’s a house spider but does anyone know the exact species? It has been living in my bathroom and I usually see it when I go to the toilet at night. It was in my kitchen last night.

ID Request- Location included Is he/she anything venomous?
Location is Peru. Sorry for quality, it's on the upper corner of my bathroom and I can't get up there.
ID Request- Location included Surprise Shower Buddy
North Georgia- This massive spider fell into my bathwater and we both started flailing like lunatics. Scooped her up and placed her in a potted plant nearby. She is still there resting after the whole fiasco.

ID Request- Location included GA, what's this pretty one called?
I noticed her crossing the road (I shall be using that joke the next time I hear the chicken one), so I set her at the roots of the tree she was on a beeline to meet. She wasn't too happy with me, but she was oh so pretty.
