June 22, 2013: Spider Hunting with Joseph Koh and Peter Jaeger (Senckenberg Museum)

This was a surprise - the smoke from Indonesia was bad but I did not know what to expect. So Joseph, Peter and myself started looking at my haunt near Queensway Secondary School. First we found this little crab, having captured a bee with a fly watching

Now I was pleased - Joseph was able to see the large number of crab spiders. More important here was on hiding inside my favoritate, Asystasia
