A team of twelve performed this week's survey under cool and drizzly conditions that gradually cleared. Arachnids can have up to eight eyes, which are often fairly easy to see on spiders. The related scorpions have one large pair and three tiny ones: they are arrayed on the edge of the "cheek" corner, visible in the image below.
