A Gift on my Doorstep - _TNY_4640
The nursery web spider (Pisaura mirabilis) is quite variable in colour (though most combinations are very attractive). This large male, which I found on the doormat (interesting texture!) outside the front door at 05.24 in the morning is one of the prettier I've encountered with that almost braided pattern on the abdomen.
Compare this one to another nice variation and tell me which is better-looking: www.flickr.com/photos/tinyturtle/18527750458/
