So I've been told.

I could have sworn I saw another species, here or elsewhere, with similar palps, but I haven't been able to find it.

Due to the profusion of other spiders and their webs and the size of my flash diffuser, I have trouble getting in really close. I'll have a slightly smaller diffuser by tomorrow.

I'm still hoping to get a really sharp picture of him, and hopefully another of him out of the web.

Well, the pictures you have now are quite nice. That is a handsome spider as well.
