User's notes

The location is an approximation because the rocks may have been blocking the GPS signal. This spider was stationary on a rock about 1m from Cave Creek. I am wondering if it is a Giant Water Spider but the colour seems wrong, although some shots on line looked similar to this one. There were a few around that looked similar, but this was the largest one. Sorry, I was only able to get top-down shots.
