Striped Lynx Spider
Striped Lynx Spider, Oxyopes salticus
Fort Tilden, 2007-09-23
I used a macro lens to take the photo. This is much larger than life size. The actual spider could stand on a dime. I found this one in the men’s room. Bathrooms in public parks are often a good place to find interesting spiders. You just have to be ready to explain to the park ranger what you’re doing setting up tripods and video equipment in the toilet. :-)
