Description
Pardosa amentata Talbot Heath
These wolf spiders are often active very early in the spring. They can be seen scurrying around hunting for prey and warming themselves in the sunshine on patches of bare soil. Unlike spiders who use a web to catch their food, these wolf spiders catch their prey by running it down.
The female wolf spider carries her eggs in a round sack beneath her body. When the spiderlings hatch from their eggs the female carries the baby spiders on her back until they are big enough to fend for themselves.

Very nice capture Andrea. I like the color contrast between the green leaf and the spider very much.
This type of wolf spider is not very big or am I wrong here?

A superb capture of this handsome spider. And an honorable hunter and good parent in the bargain.
