This gorgeous little girl is posing on the orange moonscape that is my kayak. I helped her out of the water and onto the bow, and she was still riding when I got out, and kindly posed for me.

This is definitely a female longjawed orbweaver spider, of the genus Tetragnatha. I am calling her laboriosa based on this web page upon which someone who seems to know what they’re talking about suggests that her eye arrangement most resembles that species.
