Eyeliner - _TNY_0205
Härnösand is far enough north in Sweden (about as far as southern Alaska) that celebrating Easter there means there is still plenty of snow on the ground.
Fortunately for me, my mother-in-law who lives there has a greenhouse which is a little warmer than outside. That's where I found a hammock spider, namely a Pityohyphantes phrygianus.
Not only did this one have a nice pattern on the abdomen, but I also liked the black lines going back over the thorax from the eyes like some insane spider-version eye liner.
