Spider ID

Hi all,
I know the quality of these pics is somewhat lacking (to say the least), but can anyone identify this spider and tell me what the ball is that its carrying?
Any help appreciated

Re: Spider ID

looks like Pisaura mirabilis and thats her eggs sack which when eggs are ready she will attach to vegetation and spin a tent over it and protects. They are evident in long grass at this time of year. It's a hunting spider so if i remember correctly not a web maker
