What a mom!

11:20 am Musings, Pets

I went to move one of the cacti I’m plantsitting for my mom, and lo and behold, there was a crazy-looking spider on it. I started taking pictures, because it had what seemed to be an amazing pattern on its back. After about 10 pictures, I noticed that one of the ’spots’ on the spider’s back had started to move. That’s when it dawned on me that what I was actually looking at was about 20 baby spiders, all clinging to their mother’s back. Here are the two best photos that I got. Unfortunately, I couldn’t get any video because it was too dark in the bowels of the cactus.
