Any comments? : I saw this spider as I was looking over the bridge at
the far pond of the MCP Wetlands. It has 12 white spots on the top but
it is called a Six-Spotted Fishing Spider because of 6 black spots
underneath and it fishes for its prey.

Any comments? : These Tiger Swallowtails, which I found at the MCP
