Female spider,Pisaura mirabilis,carring a large,white,spherical egg sac. The female lays her eggs in early summer,storing them in the egg sac,which she then carries around beneath her body.

The young emerge and remain in the tent,with their mother on guard,until their second moult,when they disperse | |
