UGH. I HATE spiders, and the little ones most of all! Regardless, nice shots and my compliments for the ability to shoot them with your camera rather than a can of bug spray. LOL Did this bunch at least have the courtesy of being garden spiders and not house spiders?

Nice shots but, ew. Hoards of baby spidies give me the creepy crawlies. Good job on being able to shoot them. I'm with MRRiley. I'd be getting the bug spray.

Okay let me ammend that. I'd only be getting the bug spray if they were INSIDE the house.

That awesome Heinrich, you must be a proud Papa!

It must be difficult getting them all in focus at once. If I could choose a favourite I'd say #1 before they all dispersed.

Thanks for sharing.

Hi Mike, there are spiders and than there are spiders; this bunch is more than welcome they belong to the Orbweaver family and live on flies and mosquitos. We'll be lucky to have a few survive and stay here, they set themselfs loose on the wind on a piece of string.

Take care,

Hi Dave and thank you, no lighter fluid needed on this bunch I just hope that some of them hang around here. They are great mosquito and fly catchers. Mind you I could do without some of the others.
