It wasn't till I joined PN that I realized spiders could be so colourful
..jumpers are so alert...almost intelligent as they jump to orient themselves to look at you. Mimic spiders are fantastic...yes, I am a bit of a spider admirer too. Thanks, Tukup.

I think crab spiders are kind of neat, but then I think most spiders are. Nice pics Sukanya. Thanks for sharing.
