I have seen these gatherings of harvestman spiders many times during the dry season. They are always close to a small water source...water that comes from a spring or trickles out of the mountains or the last bit of water in a drying pool in a creek bed. They make so much noise as you approach because they begin to scatter over the dry leaves en masse.
Tropical dry forest in NW Costa Rica 4.5 months into the 6 month dry season.
