One for the Frog Queen



I'm not easily startled, but I was just about to pick up this paint brush when I noticed it had a visitor.....

a visitor with tiny green eyes.

    I was really hoping when I saw that, that is was not real....<>

    .....Dawn is right. I am going to dump my brushes out before I use them!!!

    I could not have killed him either. As afraid of spiders that I am, I really kill them, try to move them away from me on a 20 foot stick...or have one of the crew rescue me :D

    Thanks for sharing. That made my day!!

    Cheers!

    Hi there, I am a bit of an aracnophile AND and an aracnophobe (weird huh?) and had to comment on these great pics.
    That is a jumping spider, a Phidippus audax of the Salticidae family.
    Tiny, harmless to humans and utterly adorable.
    Sorry to be a nerdy pedant, but those beautiful iridescent green 'eyes' are actually the mouth area! What a smile eh?

    Thanks Simon! I've always called this a jumping spider, but never knew it was the correct name.
