Spiders As Art :)

[ExoticOddities]

Hey everybody, haven't been around for awhile, but started a blog that I thought folks would enjoy that features some really cool "true spiders" found here in Florida. As a a nature photographer, the subject of my blog post is "Spiders As Art," because (like most of you) I consider spiders to be among the most beautiful predators on earth:

Check out my blog post if you'd like. My old one got destroyed be a corrupt database, and so I just resurrected a new one

In the next issue, I will also discuss some collecting techniques of capturing spiders that you might not otherwise get to see. I will also be going down to the FL Keys to collect some giant centipedes, the large FL Bark Scorpion, as well as a tiny species of Harvestman for Dr. Edwards.

Hope you enjoy my upcoming "spider blog posts"

Cheers,

Jack
