: a candy-stripe cobweb spider (_Enoplognatha ovata_ var. _redimita_) on a Canada thistle. To the left you can see a spiky little tortoise beetle larva with its tail curled upwards to hold its protective shield of poop.

Exciting Peak Anystid discovery today: just like the spiders in early spring had webs full of clover mites, the spiders now have webs full of whirligig mites!!

An ant has captured a plant bug (family Miridae) to take back to her colony.

: an _Enoplognatha_ cobweb spider (a juvenile male going by the bulbous but undifferentiated pedipalps) delicately drawing out silk. Found down by the lake.

But, baby orbweavers are out in force, and we're almost at Peak Anystid!

× : This year, at least, the _Zygiella_ spiderlings emerged in concert with the horse-chestnut blossoms. (I actually like these even more than cherry blossoms.)

Just under the wire for ! I felt bad for this five-legged running crab spider (_Philodromus_ sp.) so I caught him a nice big midge which he quickly took from my hand.

I'm very proud of this spotting: _Attidops youngi_, a jumping spider with only 3 observations in Canada and 8 total!

This tiny crab spider looks kind of grumpy that I flipped over its rock…then again, they always look grumpy.

ID: probably a _Xysticus_ ground crab spider or a similar genus.

Couldn't organise a model for today's spider pic, so just going with a well organised spider McMansion.

Notre Dame des Araignées.

In the past I've seen small orbweavers like _Zygiella_ using this crevice as a retreat, but I think these spiders are araneophages (spiders that specialize in hunting and eating other spiders)—perhaps pirate spiders (family Mimetidae) or _Platnickina_ cobweb spiders.

I failed at spider hunting today because everybody was sleeping in.

I thought today, being a rest day, would make a liar out of my daily spider presents itself claim. Then this guy fell into an incomprehensible trap.

As an Australian I can post a daily spider, but it's hard to find photogenic spiders that don't mind modelling for a toot.

Conifer cones are like high-rises for tiny spiders. Every one holds countless silk apartments, some with spiders still inside, like the dictynid in the last picture.

A (very cute) jumping spider from yesterday's walk! Anyone recognize it? Maybe a juvenile Phidippus clarus or one of the EMPPs (bugguide.net/node/view/1182999)?

From my Ontario Place visit a couple weeks ago: a tiny spiderling ballooning from a fence post, on an unseasonably warm afternoon. ? ?

A little mesh-web weaver (family ), out and about on a late January day down by the lake. The patterns on their abdomen are so mesmerizing, don't you think?
