Monday Links and a Photo

Here are links to what I did online last week and a few other amusing links. But first, a photo.

I found this critter at the Woldumar Nature Center here in Lansing. EXIF and links after the break.

I was walking down one of the (many) trails at the Nature Center and I glanced at this plant. I did a double take, and noticed this spider. I have no idea what kind it is. I took a bunch of photos, but they didn’t turn out as well as I hoped–there was a bit of a breeze and it kept blowing the plant around. I even used my tripod (which was a challenge on the uneven trail), but oh well. Its eyes are so tiny!
