Field Notes

Description:

Tiny spider (body length about 3mm see last photo for size comparison with my finger tip) that had built its web on one of our maple saplings.

Habitat:

Semi rural.

Notes:

This little guy retreated from its web to the safety of the trunk when he saw me - taking its lunch with it!
