Karl G Posted December 11, 2013 Share #5 Posted December 11, 2013 Very, very lovely pictures/macro and vivid and gorgeous colors. I would encourage everyone and anyone to read The Life of the Spider by Jean-Henri Fabre which is actually available for free on the Gutenberg project. It contains such pearls such as that in most species of spiders, the far smaller male is eaten after copulation. In one species, the male captures a young female, ropes her down, feeds her until she grows and then rapes her and runs like hell. God, I do love the diversity found in Biology!

stuny Posted December 12, 2013 Author Share #7 Posted December 12, 2013 Advertisement (gone after registration) Bob, Quan, Guenther, Paul, Bill, Ece & Brent - Thank you. Karl - Thank you. That's one of the reasons why we enjoy SCUBA diving so much, especially the misnamed "muck diving" which seldom involes much, but always involves small, incredible life forms. For a hint at that look at our photo galleries from Borneo and from Indonesia - Diving Around Komodo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
