User's notes
In the first image the spider is in its classic posture, waiting patiently for passing prey. The rear end is towards the bottom of the image whilst the head end is towards the top. The head end is raised up off the leaf as seen in the second image, with the spider's legs wrapped around the head and its eyes peering through the gaps in its legs.
