Swampy! You're back - though I've continued to enjoy the otter. The spider is very cute. A dear friend just phoned from N. Carolina where she's traveling with her hubby. I told her about your blog and wonderful swamp postings - yet I realize I don't know what swamp it is. Is it the Great Dismal? If you'd rather not say publicly - you could email me :0) mushduck@yahoo.com
I can find beauty in many places that others cannot, but alas, I cannot find beauty in a jumping spider. Especially a furry one. I'd be rolling up a newspaper about now. Or I'd be frozen in fear and screaming for my husband depending on how big it was. How big is that spieder?
I have always loved jumping spiders, although I've not seen them as up close as this. Even from a distance with the naked eye, they're cute. I introduced them to my daughter when she was little as - fuzzy mandibles, and that name has remained.....
It's funny, I used to really dislike spiders, but lately I find myself catching them and putting them outside. This one is a cutie, though jumping spiders still unnerve me....
I love jumping spiders. They have such personality, IMO. I used to have one -- a beautiful whitish-grey one -- that lived in my office. When I worked on the computer, he would perch on top of the warm screen with his little legs dangling down and watch me. I would give him bread crumbs and other goodies. My fellow faculty persons thought I was weird, which I guess . . . guilty. ;-)Kathy in Kentucky

Swampy- Great to see your posting again. Terrific photo as usual. Cindi
I can't believe I'm sitting here finding a hairy spider adorable, but that it is!

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

That was wrong.

Hope it's just the business of the 'Spring thing' that has kept you from posting - though I do love that spider.
