Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas everybody!

Nowadays everybody Photoshops a stupid santa hat on a giraffe or an elephant, so we decided not to stay behind...

Best wishes for you all, keep well

Bark Spiders are well camouflaged, beautiful looking, but yet freaky looking too, spiders that in appearance mimic the bark of trees. Some even go as far as having thorn look-alike protuberances from their abdomen. As soon as it is dark, it descends from the branches where it has been hiding all day, and makes a classic orb web, where it sits throughout the night catching insects. As soon as the sun comes up, it eats its own web again, to recycle nutrients and energy, and sits on a branch for the rest of the day where they are extremely well camouflaged. When night falls, the cycle starts over again...
