And that's how the wolf spider got a second cricket today. 😂 #spiders #SpidersOfTheFediverse #spidersofmastodon #wolfspiders #lycosidae #hognacarolinensis

We get them big at home too, but I reckon the golden orb weavers/tiger spiders/Trichonephila plumipes get a bit bigger up here in Brisbane.

Both of these are females, but in the first photo there is also a male above the female in her web. The males are much, much smaller.

Went down to the lake today and found several zebra jumping spiders (_Salticus scenicus_) feasting on the midges (_Chironomus_ sp.) that are beginning to emerge!

⚠️ WARNING: first pic in particular is alarmingly cute, prepare yourself

Rescued this wolf spider just before it went into the school office this morning. hydrated it, gave it a cricket snack, and found a more appropriate spot for it after school today. Didn't seem like it wanted to leave 🤣. #spiders #SpidersOfTheFediverse #spidersofmastodon #wolfspiders #lycosidae #hognacarolinensis #arachnids

A number of big golden orb weaver spiders too, mostly high up in the trees.

Small progress on this #drawing WIP. I'm still severely struggling against a bug, and my throat has started feeling sore.

I don't need tonsil-free tonsilitis again. Last time that happened, it caused breathing issues.

But at least I've made a little step forward with this.
