A Family Affair
My wife started hollering for me from the front of the house. A bigger than usual wolf or huntsman type spider was on our front stoop and she wanted me to see it. Very cool. She knows i dig big bugs! Upon closer inspection, i realized she had many tiny spiderlings all over her backside, crawling everywhere over her. the camera was handy.

Great shot! These used to drown themselves in our pool to get the babies (who walked on the surface) to become independent. Great shot.
