Wow from me too. That jumper is so clear. Is the Lichen Hunter really small or is the leaf really big? In general, am I right in supposing that your equivalent spiders and insects tend to be quite big there compared with USA or Europe?

Thanks for the comment, Brenda. The lichen wasn't small, probably about 15mm long.

Excellent set Kurt. Spiders are all fine shots, hopper too. My eye prefers the Golden Huntsman most.
