Garden spiders - 06-13-2010, 10:37 AM


Found these spiders out and about in the gardens early this morning.

#1 Crab spider

#2 Closer

#3 Closer, still--practicing for the arrival of the MP-E on Friday


#4 This green lynx looks a little 'one-sided': appears to have lost its right side legs completely; wonder what happened? It was just a few blooms away from the crab spider.

#5 Another green lynx

Thanks for viewing.

Great colors in these images, Kenny -- and super sharp as expected.

Thanks Sandy and Jim, appreciate it.

Sandy, there's nothing wrong with the images I've seen you post, girl, they look just fine.
