Thanks. I'm into this kind of insects now, I love to see insects who mimic other insects for survival. Unfortunately, I haven't find a new one of this kind since 2010.
They are seriously some of the coolest shots! That is the ant-iest looking spider ever :P
In the third photo it has a bug attached to each leg! Soooo Awesome!
