Scattering Spiderlings

Scattering Spiderlings
Taken in my garden. This is what happens when you touch a "ball" of baby spiders - they all scatter away! If you go back in half an hour, they will have returned and re-formed. Over the next few days they will gradually go off on their own. (See my previous image for the "ball".

Please view large, on black for best effect. If you want to be really adventurous use the "Actions" menu, then "See all sizes" and view the original size!

Wow, that would not be enjoyable at all! I'm really kind of fond of spiders, but I do not want them all over me!
