Unidentified

Comments & ID Thoughts

Living in the country we come across many amazing spiders. But this one had us mesmerized. It is very tiny about the size of my pinky fingernail. It looked like it was dipped in a shiny, metallic golden copper paint. It was beautiful like a piece of jewelry. When I got closer to it to take a picture it stopped and raised 4 random legs straight up as if it was trying to look like it had spikes. It did make me nervous for a minute. I thought... Is it going to attack? We had never seen anything like it.
