Pest Control Duty

This orb weaver apparently feeds on lacewings, millipedes, centipedes, mites and stoneflies beside others and thus makes for a good pest control technician.

The shot was taken over dark waters with the exposure biased 2-2/3 stops darker so that the spider won’t come out washed-out.

Where did your legs go little spider???

[Image description start. A zoomed in photograph of a very very small black and white jumping spider sitting on someone's finger. The photo is taken from above, showing the spiders back as it faces away from the camera, showing that it is missing the front and middle leg on its right side, which we see on the left. Its body is mostly grayish black, with light brown legs with small white speckles, with the front leg still remaining solid black, and white on the mouth parts. Image description end.]

(it was in our living room and hopped onto my leg. I took pictures after getting it on my hand and then put it outside. Didn't notice until now while looking at the pictures but it was missing any legs, and I didn't notice that it was missing two of them until literally right as I loaded it on this post)

[ID: A close up photo of a green cucumber spider, with a green-brown head-body, and a lighter green round abdomen and legs with thin black spines. It is perched on something dark, with text below it in dialogue that reads, "I'm sorry for scaring you but I didn't know being seen would cost me my life". End ID.]

Cutest little jumping spider! So itty bitty it was probably half the size of my pinky nail. Plus such pretty stripes

okay found a picture that gave me so much. Miles or Ganke (most likely Ganke) has a skateboard (and aren’t the fairy lights cute? I like to think Miles did that)

and they got the googly-eye rice cooker, hot water boiler*, the spices(?)/sauces, the fully stocked mini-fridge, AND a record player (that’s for sure Aaron’s influence on Miles)

AND look at Ganke’s setup. It’s crazy. There’s no way Ganke985 isn’t real. How much did this shit cost.

Their whiteboard that I didn’t show is also very cool, the little “fighting godzilla” drawings under all those equations is perfect. There’s also some shelves for shoes, really love that Miles actually is a sneakerhead :3

Keeping The House In Order

A Giant Golden Orb Weaver tidying up its house after having just wrapped up and stowed a prey away for later consumption. Photo credit: Jonathan Chua.

Taken at the equivalent focal length of 840mm, the shutter speed for this was a mere 1/30 second as a result of keeping the ISO at 80. But the camera was then on a tripod so things had worked out fine here.

I saw an ant-mimicing jumping spider!!!!!!!

[ID: cropped and zoomed in photo of an ant-mimicing jumping spider that is red in color, with large round black eyes, and its first pair of legs held up in the air to mimic an ant's antenne. End ID.]
