Awesome pics! I'm just a bit jealous

I'm pretty sure the mixed up file at the top is a "face shot" of the Argiope argentata

 

[zonbonzovi]

Thanks, y'all!

jbm- you're not very far away from locations where they run pretty thick.

Erik- that's the one...too many files to edit. I wish I had had the time to get shots of some of the smaller & lesser knwon arachnids, but watching FL wildlife this time of year will give you whiplash

[Crysta]

wow awesome pictures! I really like the colors of Leucage venusta I wouldn't mind some of those hanging on my walls!!

 

[j-boy]

How big is the Kukulcania sp.?

 

[jbm150]

Nice, Kukulcania are cool spiders. I used to collect them from my dad's garage. If someone is afraid of spiders, that isn't one they'd enjoy running in to, they're creepy looking

 

[zonbonzovi]

Kukulcania is about 2.25" leg span...while fast and kinda nervous, she isn't very defensive and will "strike a pose" when in a quiet setting while out of her enclosure. They remind me of Tegenaria minus the 'tude.
