Lakenheath Spiders

Abundant Spider activity at Lakenheath on Friday - lots of Xysticus species (Crab spiders) taking all kinds of prey including another spider species Heliophanus. The dark Pardosa spiders were mostly carrying egg sacs though one pair appeared to be mating. Pisaura mirabilis often rest with legs all crumpled as if dead while there were several webs full of Araneus diadematus young
