This spider with its fantastic colouring (zoom in) was found in my backyard. I've never seen another.
Nope. Na. Nuh uh. My back won’t stop crawling. Gorgeous creature and amazing photo! Did you go looking for it or were you snapping pics on your backyard and stumbled upon it? It blends so well with the tree, I’d never realize it was a spider until it was too late 😅
