Jump

This jumpping spider is probably an older relative to yesterday's little one. Upon closer inspection we see that it is missing one of it's pedipalps and has eyes in front and around on the back of it's head.

I See U!

Hunting on our patio rail this morning, was this intrepid 1 cm big mustached fellow. It was curious as to why I was following it's every move and looked up at me as if to say "I see u...back off!"

"Come into my parlor..."

"Come into my parlor" said the spider to the fly. (We'll call it an arachnid fable.)

This little one appears to have a surprised face on its abdomen. Like the kid from Home Alone. What fabulous long legs!

Playing on the Green!

Brown Widow?

This lovely creature is very dangerous, we found it just under the rim of our city trash can. It is a brown widow and like the black widow is poisonous. Google the brown widow for more information. I personally checked out www.247wildlife.com/brown-widow-spider.htm

The Male Tarantula

Some have asked for additional photos of the male tarantula. Since I don't particularly like to bother my tarnatulas I will just post another photo taken at the time we transfered him to his new home. Enjoy and if you have any comments please click the comments button and let us know what you think.
