Should've used a bunny harvestman instead to the spider

Things looks a chocolate covered horror.

I mean, they are harmless and don't produce any venom...

But...

Ome of these things is not like the others... 🕷️

Although actually, they do construct elaborate traps, help the world in unexpected ways, and cause mass panic. Maybe they ARE fey.

Any idea what is the species in the upper right corner? It is super cute!!!

[–] austinfloyd@ttrpg.network 7 points 10 months ago

That looks to be some type of velvet worm.

You can read up on them, and see some nice photos here on mander.... they're really interesting creatures!

[–] flora_explora@beehaw.org 2 points 9 months ago

Ah thanks!! :)

What's the most top left? Only one that looks like a cartoon.

I'm so glad my favorite moth, the rosy maple moth (the pink and yellow one with a mullet) was in this picture.

[–] Hammocks4All@lemmy.ml 4 points 10 months ago

Bugs are so fucking cool

[–] Glaive0@beehaw.org 4 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Lots of pink and teal and spots and sparkles….then that brownish spider. Spiders are awesome, but that one feels a little more redcap fey than tinkerbell fairy.

[–] RecluseRamble@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 10 months ago

It's Malificent. Technically, also a fairy.
