A Spider and a tale of two hikes on Staten Island

Perhaps not quite as hard as finding a Pygmy Seahorse in a haystack, but still a challenge.  Hiking Mount Moses on Staten Island over the weekend.  Part of our Greenbelt.  Ran into this tiny spider species I never saw before.  Mount Moses is one of the highest points in the city and makes a nice short hike especially on the evening of the full moon.  Play the game and try to find the spider.

BONUS HIKE:  Egbertville Ravine.  This trail starts right where the car was parked near Meisner Road and Manor Road.  Happy Accident.
