Ive heard people poop a little when they close to you. So not a abnormal reacrion of the spider

I have been known to do that to people.

So I tried to take some pictures of the other one I have found in my yard. This one is much larger than the spider in my tree. After posting photo on Reddit someone told me it was a Eriophora ravilla

Pictures of the larger one will try to get better ones when she comes out.

I could see that, she is quite a nice specimen. Love those orange eyes...

I don't see them as a pest. To me they are the pest control. My wife on the other hand does not agree. She wants to know where this spider is but I won't tell her.
