She certainly won't win my vote for Miss Spider but I have to admire the disguise... The little silver spider was in the web with a larger one of the same kind, apparently "sharing" the meal. During my shooting he sneaked over to get some food. (I'll bet that took some courage.)
Thanks for the comments and helpful hints. Most of my photos are from the woods and of nature. I hope you enjoy them.

@Jonathan Alan Photography: I was pretty creeped out too when I nearly walked into the web!
Those, are very big bugs for one very small spider.

@vu@granby - Wolfgang: Thanks... and to think I was only inches from having these spiders on my pants before I spotted them!
There's certainly a lot going on, arms and legs all over the place. Very grusome capture.
