The triad sight

[Prajwal J Ullal]

ID: Two tailed spider
One of the most intriguing arachnids that are usually seen on the bark of the trees, these beauties have the capability to blend into the rough terrain of the tree barks. The way they tend to hide themselves is to flatten themselves onto the bark, so as to look like the usual protrusions that naturally tend to be on the trees, while keeping a keen eye over for nay of the prey as well as predators that may be roaming or approaching. Probably to aid this, the eyes of the spider seem to be the highest point of their body, making it easy to have a clear look all around.

The low angle helps to show how flat the spider is laying on the bark. Good details in the eyes. The tail is also clearly visible. Can't see its other tail? I feel a slight less space at the bottom would have been nice. Thanks for sharing.
