About the image: Taken in June 2011 - I found him after he had emerged from his exoskeleton. This was the first time I realized that they molted and leave behind their old skin.
You can see his molted Exoskeleton - HERE
Hmmm....I had a black spider in my tea pot this morning. I'm not sure what nature is trying to tell me. LOL!
