 Royal Alberta Museum: Invertebrate Zoology - Bug Facts - Jewel Spider
The next clue that one has a Jewel Spider is the fact that it has probably built its web on or near your home, often over a window to a room where the light is left on for some time in the evening, or near a porch light.
Although the spider is around throughout most of the spring and summer and often well into the fall, most people do not see it until late July at the earliest and more often not until August or even September.
The number of spiders you support is dependent on what your insect population is like, and this is largely determined by the number of lights you leave on after dark.

It is related to BOTH the spiders and the scorpions, and it belongs to its own group of animals.
A hunting camel spider runs across the desert floor almost at lightning speed, and it is so fast that it is impossible for the human eye to follow.
The reason why camel spiders have managed to live so successfully in the desert is probably because they spend as little time as they can on the dangerous surface where there are lots of predators.

This spider was very actively building her web but I managed to get one photo that was decent.
She was a Jewel Spider (relatively harmless, very common in central Alberta), and they're occationally named Cat Eye spiders since the patterns on the back (or butt, shall I say?) look like the eyes of a cat.
And Jewel spiders stay outside so that was a plus for me, lol (no worries about giant spiders crawling across my face at night).
