Florida attack spider


Florida attack spider
This fellow would rebuild his web every day right in the path to the front door.
We started carrying flashlights with us to spot him and his web every night.

I tried using different cameras to photograph him.

Can you tell which which photo was taken with a digital SLR and which was with a point and shoot digital camera?


Here's another fellow I spotted while photographing his friend the spider.

Alligators at Merritt Island, Florida

These guys were fun to photograph. My mother in law encouraged me to hop out of our vehicle to get a closer view of the gator. (What am I? Bait?)

We had our dog with, who totally ignored the alligators at Merritt.
No worries, he stayed in our vehicle, belted in so he wouldn't go for a joy run.

The raccoons were a different story though. He really noticed the raccoons.
