Default What kind of spider is this that landed on me when I was working in my booster pump shed?

Is it a tarantula?

I'd say it is. Some cultures eat taranulas. Done crispy.


I did a google search for " spider identification "
that returned several very good web sites - one was
specifically for North America.
... then I got scared of the photos and had to stop.

Once in high wchool looked out the window at a bush in front of our
house and there was a big spider with long black legs and a big cream
and pink body. I think it was cream colored with pink dots or lines.

3+ inches total across.

It stayed there for hours. I've never seen anything like it again, irl,
a zoo, or the web.
