Look at this absolute unit I found on my walk today.

Perhaps my favorite of my #petSpiders: #Liphistius cf. ornatus (ornate armored #trapdoorSpider)! Some points of interest: 1. 1 leg/palp at the base of each silk tripline, waiting to feel prey to walk by 2. eyes on a cute little orb atop the head! 3. those leg spines! They're used to grab and pull in prey --- Liphistiids are the most 'ancient' of all living spiders. That is, all other spiders are more closely related to each other than to Liphistiids. So, these spiders have traits that are very similar to the ancestor of all spiders! --- (i've been struggling w/ whether or not to post my photography these days. It feels very empty to be like "hey look a cool spider!" when there are so many horrible things going on that need our attention. but I think I need to keep doing art for at least my own sake) --- (if you enjoy my photography, please go and take action. donate. demand that your university/lab make changes to fight systemic racism. attend protests. don't let up until there is some change) --- #arachnology #arachnidsofig #arachnidsofinstagram #tarantulasoftheworld #tarantulasofig #tarantulas #petspider #spiderverse #spidersOfInstagram #spidersofig #spidersOfInstagram #macro #macro_brilliance #macroperfection #macrophoto #macrophotography #InvertOfTheWeek #invert_macro #amazingArachnids #exploreTinyWorlds #naturePhotography #wildlifephotography https://www.instagram.com/p/CCYp5-PBFTg/?igshid=1k05rbgdey6wv

California trapdoor spider. The mother raises her spiderlings in her burrow over the winter, regurgitating food for them. #californiatrapdoorspider #trapdoorspider #bothriocyrtumcalifornicum https://www.instagram.com/p/BwH82qvAr0q/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1fcvpkzyaefpy

I’m not quite ready for Christmas movies this year. Weird, I know…me who usually has my tree up on November 1st. Granted this year I was flying all day on the 1st, but even so, I’m not ready to let the horror movies go yet. I spent the evening watching one of my favorite #funnyhorrormovies #eightleggedfreaks and #sketching a #trapdoorspider. Spiders scare the hell out of me, but I’m equally fascinated by them. I love learning about different spiders. I think that’s another reason I enjoy the movie because there are so many different kinds of spiders in large action. It’s educational, funny, and scary all at the same time🤔😂🥺 #drawing #draw #facingmyfears #sketch #scarymovies #notreadyforchristmasyet #draweveryday #eveningsketch #drawingwhatscaresme #justdraw #sketchingtherapy #sketchingthenightaway https://www.instagram.com/p/CVzQfR5rKoB/?utm_medium=tumblr
