Bog Rolling
October 15, 2019
A tiny light grey spider has caught a ride on a floating cranberry.
This might be a baby 6-spotted fishing spider or some completely different species. I would love to hear opinions. They are very abundant along the edge of the bog, and the floating berries don't seem to be a "life-raft" for them. They are as comfortable racing around on the water's surface as they are scrambling from berry to berry.
