found some time

Hey all!. I've been out of the loop for a few weeks and havent had much time for any shooting.:cryin: My work always gets crazy when we start a new project.I've been lurking in the shadows reading and looking at everyones posts. there are some really great shots lately!:thumbsup:
Heres a few from the past weeks. Nothing great but fun to try.
I've got some nice fire ant bites on my elbow from trying to get a better angle on the ibis shot.lol
I have never seen this type of spider, until I moved to Fl. Nature works in funky ways!!
Thanks for looking:D
1. White Ibis (juvenile) I think
2.Black necked stilt (I'm trying to figure out how to put a frame on)
3.Funky spider (all you spider buffs can help here)

We're all glad you're still around :)

Nice images all. Nice composition on the ibis, nice reflection on the stilt, and that funky spider - well that's just funky.

Thanks for sharing.

Very strange looking spider indeed...If you hadnt stated it was a spider I would have thought it to be some odd looking crab

I don't know how I missed this thread... great shot's B/B! That spider is super cool looking!!!

Great pictures :D

The spider is of the Orb Weaver family or :

Gasteracantha cancriformis (Linnaeus)

sometimes called:
Spined Micrathena, spinyback spiders or crab spiders
