spp. An interesting spider on a rock at Piney River. It really does have 8 legs, the 2 front ones are held together.
I found this large Spider in a shallow stream near Tremont in the Smokies. It is probably a fishing spider since it was walking on the surface of the water.
I spotted this spider walking on the surface of the pond at Haw Ridge in Oak Ridge. Like Water Striders (they are not related), they are able to walk on the surface tension of the pond.
