Arachnophobia

Yesterday I decided to photograph the countless number of Dock Spiders we have on, well, our dock. They all either have egg sacks on the them or they are guarding their babies who have already hatched. If you don't know what a dock spider looks like, you're about to find out. They are also very large, compared to other spiders we see around here. From the end of one leg to the end of the other, on some, are probably a good 4 or 5 inches.
The Baby spiders are kind of cute, they are bright yellow and about the size of the tip of a pen and their are hundreds maybe even thousands of them in each nest.
 I should warn you, if you don't like spiders, you may want to look away because you are about to get up close and personal with a few.
