The spider observed has a light brown exterior with slightly darker appendages. The spider, including its appendages, was about the size of a quarter with the legs making up most of the area. The legs of the spider appeared to be about the thickness of a piece of average hair. The abdomen of the spider was slightly darker than the head which is a very light brown. Where the appendage bends, there are areas which appeared to be slightly darker or slightly lighter like joints. Each appendage contained 3 joints forming a trapezoid like shape. About a millimeter away from the terminal end of the leg, there was a final bend away from the body that connected with the surface supporting the spider. When the cup was moved, the spider tilted with it in order to stay upright. The spider moved from the bottom of the cup to the top when flipped around. When hanging from the top of the cup the abdomen and head did not make contact with the cup. The spider seemed to be sticking to the top of the cup upside down with just its legs. The cup contained what appears to be the beginning of a web with small, white, tubular, thin filaments. A few white and light brown dots were observed in the cup.

Beginning of Sentences
There was very nice descriptions within your paragrph. One thing I noticed was that there were a lot of sentences that started with words such as "Where" or "When". This is okay, yet maybe being more formal may profesionalize your paragraph and make it easier to read.
Great detail
I love the detail you use when saying that the spider legs look like a trapezoid shape. This paints a good picture of what you are looking at. The paragraph is very concise with great detail about the orientation of the spider, even when flipping it around. I think you could say the 'specimen' or 'insect' rather than using 'the spider' the whole time, but other than that, nice job!
