Hairy

Posted by Nishana Minhaz (Calicut / Kochi, India) on 25 January 2008 in Animal & Insect.

This one was a real weird-lookin spider! The hairs on his legs looked like thorns. I would've liked a pic from a different angle so that i got his face too, but apparently he dint like the idea..He ran away n hid between leaves. I usually get to see only lil brown spiders like Ive posted here, so this one was a strange find..

I really like how well in-focus not only the spider is but also the bumps on the leaves.
