“Yeah, in kindergarten the kids used to call me Four Eyes, but then I got contact lenses and they stopped…”
Saw Jenny on a fencepost at a park the other day. Ain’t she beautiful? Especially the reddish marks above her eyes. They don’t use spider webs to catch their prey/food, but instead, yes indeed, they jump on ‘em.
They need and have excellent depth perception thanks to their eyes. Harmless to humans, as are almost all spiders.
