Third time's the charm. The first two photos weren't as clear, and as soon as I took this shot, the spider scurried off to the back of the leaf.
This one caught my eye, lit by the rising sun with deep shade in the background. For Arachtober 9...
As i was sitting in my office i saw this spider.....so thin and small .......it was very difficult to focus it.
Pls see this in large
I'm pretty sure of the id on this one. Stack of 4 images with a 28mm reverse mount. I wish it would have stayed put a little longer to get a few more spots in focus.
Discovered this stunning little cucumber green spider, Araniella cucurbitina, clinging to the spathe of my calla lily. The spider has a brilliant lime green abdomen and I believe this specimen was a male. The droplet was not placed, but is actually due to the natural process of guttation where drops of xylem sap are exuded from the tips of some vascular plants as a result of root pressure.
