Spider crab

Well said!

Thanks to you too :-)
That is it for me: sharing the beauties we all see and why not? like them when they are pretty! for me this is not a photo competition, it is nature shared by all of us. This is what PN is for me, a beautiful hobbie being in touch with nature and learning about species in other parts of the world and near me :-)

I am an avid amateur and would love to create some of the images you do. I for one am happy you are sharing your discoveries. They are truly inspiring and make me smile. Thank you!

Thanks for the support, James! But it will not work. I am persona non grata for most of them, in special for the directors of Project Noah. But like I say, I don't care. I am here to enjoy nature, share the beauties I see and see other peoples side of the world. I am no professional photographer and thus I do not care much if they choose my pictures or not. SOTD is chosen by two particular people that dod not like me at the moment so they will never chose any of my spottings, period. For me is already a personal SOTD when you and a few others like it. You already made my day so do not worry. BTW, will you not favorite it then?? ;-)

I feel that way too! But this is magnificent and so well captured! Come on the Rangers, vote for this, it is awesome and deserving!

Oh, that will never again happen for me James :-)
But I don´t care. The SOTD is chosen by one person..what is this, compared to 17 likes ;-)

Needs SOTD nomination!

Incredible, beautiful images of an amazing subject!

Thank you, Dominique! :-)

@Patricia: Aqui yo solo habia visto una araña cangrejo una vez en otro sitio. En este sitio donde estaban las orquideas parecen ser mas frecuentes. De todos modos, como tu dices, si vas a por ellas seguro que no las ves. Yo las vi por casualidad mientras hacia fotos de las orquideas :-)

mira que me gustan a mi las arañas cangrejo, y si ya están sobre una orquídea... <3
preciosas fotos, y que suerte! a mi me cuesta muchísimo encontrar estas arañas!

Great series of photographs of the spider.
