Field Notes

Description:

A beautiful spotted Shamrock - not a 4 leaf clover, but something more amazing with beautiful markings. This is one pretty spider contrasting with the beautiful green plant.

Habitat:

Meadow in the Poconos

Notes:

It is difficult to decide, but I think this is my favorite spider. The first photos of a Shamrock type and only got two because I was scared and excited at the same time.
