James River Beach Still Life

Natural objects on the shore the James River, near Richmond, VA.

Unlikely Fisherman

Five of the eight legs of this spider were on the surface of a small pool of water.  The other three were resting on a leaf floating on the surface.  At first I thought this spider had been stranded on the leaf but I later realized it was probably waiting there for lunch to come along.
