Spider

Description:

I found a web on the ground again. The structure is quite comlex with many layers of web on top of eachother. A hole in the middle was clearly visible. I started to "tickle" the web with a blade of grass - and in 1 second the spider was out inspecting his web... Size max 2 cm.

Habitat:

High altitude mixed forrest and meadowland, dry season.

Notes:

I think it is the same spider as this spotting http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/311... But without any water in the web.

I am practicing, but the camera does have its limitations! (or the animals that does not let me be super-close to them haha) In September, I have decided to get a more advanced camera and take the next step in the world of photographing wildlife... Thank you for your words, they motivate me to go on :)
