Hmm red _back_ ? I scratched head and then looked up the stats. Our
version has the red hourglass on the lady's belly... but I see it is the
same genus as your redback
I like Larry's portrait... I try to remember spiders are our friends,
but if I had seen a genuine black widow I think it would ahve unhinged
me a little..

What we call a redback in Australia - very poisonous. Legend has it that

White Russian immigrants, living in a country part of Australia, went to the

spider died of
alcoholic poisoning.
I take no responsibility for the truth of the story!

Found this girl in my garage last night, spent some time pestering her with my

did sacrifice a little sharpness by putting the 1.4x teleconverter on my 90mm
macro lens.
