Well I'm saying "home sweet home" but I'm not sure, I'm assuming that this is a caring mother carting her brood of maturing spiderlings around with her in their own little house.
Am I right or am I wrong? Comments welcomed.

This is all I could find today, well I did find a nice Harvester with some kind of red parasite stuck on it's back. I took 6 shots of it, unfortunately unbeknown to me the batteries in the ring flash had packed up about 7 shots before :(:(:(
