Description
This red and black incy wincy spider is so tiny; only around 4mm long. In this photograph, 4 eyes are visible which are looking straight at me or the camera! With the human eye, it is almost impossible to see his eyes. He has two more eyes at each side of his head towards the back to enable him to see in all directions, meaning a total of 6 eyes.
The colored line or band on the right is a fine spider web thread with the colors glowing from the reflections of the sunlight.
His little abode is in a pot with a cactus plant, but when I took this image, he decided to take a walk around the perimeter of the pot.
[from Wikipedia]
Spiders (order Araneae) are air-breathing arthropods that have eight legs and chelicerae with fangs that inject venom. They are the largest order of arachnids and rank seventh in total species diversity among all other groups of organisms.
Spiders are found worldwide on every continent except for Antarctica, and have become established in nearly every habitat with the exception of air and sea colonization. As of 2008, at least 43,678 spider species, and 109 families have been recorded by taxonomists; however, there has been confusion within the scientific community as to how all these families should be classified, as evidenced by the over 20 different classifications that have been proposed since 1900.

A very fine portrait of the spider and colours and details are real good. Seeing them in this way make them unreal with all eyes. Thanks for your comments and votes on my work.

Thanks very much, Jon for your comment, vote and sad story! This one would have had trouble biting... he was only 3 or 4mm long!

Kaye, I'll vote for your bravery, not this monster! A spider bit me in the eye when I was young & I lost my sight for about a week. They are not high on my list of friends...! v for bravery!!
