Spider ID

[Kitah]

I know, I ask for a lot of IDs, but if I dont know exactly what something is, I always like to find out

Found this guy in the shed this afternoon... Is it a wolf spider?

Haha I just like this shot... looks like its playing hide and seek

Love the pics. Post them for the screensaver. I think the 2nd one cos you can see the detail. I wish I could take photos like that!!

Rabid wolf spider....They are my Faveirite Spider, next to Huntsmans. Did you get rid of the Mites? lolol

I don't see any mites on it snakeman...

shadow - did you keep it? They make excellent captives.

 

[Kitah]

I couldn't see any mites either, thought I was going blind after that comment...

Nah, didn't keep it, not allowed to keep any more animals, regardless of what it is, until I finish uni (when my first new animal will most likely be a spotted python or a stimmy)

Nice, what kind of camera do you have, cool pics

 

[Kitah]

For these shots I used my mothers Fuji Finepix S5800... not an dSLR or anything like I'd like, but does the job. My actual camera is almost identical though has 0.9 less MP... but mines in for repairs lol

thanks
