Lurking

I was looking for snakes in the rocks by the pond outside the back yard, but didn't find any. This
spider was lurking between a few rocks and I only took a quick shot out of curiosity. I ended up
liking it as the glint in the eye and the shadow added something a little sinister, or maybe not!!
I believe it is a wolf spider of one type or another, about an inch long, leg end to leg end.

other sizes: small medium original auto

At least you were still able to get a nice shot of this spider with interesting pose. Gmv.

Correction, Dave: "pouncing"

A nice find, Dave. Nice sharp details on the leg and body. Better found outside than inside. V.

Excellent shot of a wolf spider, Dave. Be aware that they catch prey by pounding on them. Consider yourself lucky!
