A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
Neriene radiata
Two spiders in a web together. I first thought one was eating the other, but they both move. They both look different, but similar enough, that I'm thinking they are the same specie and were mating.
Deciduous forest
Finally got around to uploading to bugguide, and they suggested filmy dome spider.
Hema, I am an avid fisherman as well as wildlife lover, so yes that is a fish that I caught, though I wouldn't call it a trophy. I am aware of the rule about posting trophy photos (which i think is what you're getting at), but I was only thinking of posting, not profile pics. If you think this is a violation of the rule, or might offend someone, I have no problem changing it.
dferris,You have earned our admiration! With no disrespect meant ,does your profile picture seem to look like you have a trophy in your hand? Please clarify.
Thanks.
Thanks Machi, Your suggestion seems right, but i agree the picture are different and are hard to compare. I'll probably upload it to bugguide and see if they can confirm it.
Not 100% sure because the views you have of the abdomen show some nice markings but I can't find those same angles on any of the bugguide photos to compare those markings.
