All Creatures Great and Small

At the suggestion of many visitors to Aquaworld, I have started to extend the aquarium web site to include a variety of spiders and insects and other creepie-crawlies, as well as the birds and mammals of Crete.

The first of these pages is now under construction and features fifteen images taken in October this year by Stef van Overdijk from Holland. You can see it at:

Particularly fascinating is this wolf spider with numerous young clinging to her (?) back:

Guaranteed to send a shiver down the spine are the two images of one of the local Cretan scorpions:

If you have any images of any Cretan wildlife that you would like to add to these new pages as they are being constructed, or any information about local fauna that you think should be mentioned, please feel free to send them to me at jbmclaren@hotmail.com
