you know the reason for this?

I believe loosing the tail is a defense mechanism, they are able to get away if something has them by the tail.

correct, my cats have learnt to ignore the tails and keep on chasing the lizard. lol

OK folks here's my almost photo! This is also the second one of this type of spider I tried to shoot! This has got to be one of the smallest web making spiders I swear!This was taken using my nikkor 105mm micro lens and the Raynox 250 on it and i still couldn't fill the frame, so this is a crop!

love the color but i was torn as to what to center in the frame - the boat or the hitching post. chose the boat because if i centered the posts, the boat is pushed maybe too far to the right but the post being off center ruins it i think..
