Natures wonders: Spider looks like a dry leaf (Introduction)

David’s comment: How did the spider decide to do this? If this deceptive camouflage is necessary, tiny steps of partial change would not be effective, suggesting it all happened in one jump, a saltation. Not by chance. Check out the pictures on the website. The hiding trick is amazing.

Thank you for another wonderful wonder. Definitely not by chance. Clever creatures, spiders. In fact lots of creatures are amazingly clever. Look at the weaverbird and his complicated nest. They all seem to find their own particular ways of surviving, making themselves comfortable, protecting themselves, catching their prey. One might almost think they were intelligent – though of course not humanly intelligent. However, there is a theory that they are not intelligent enough to do all this by themselves. They have to be preprogrammed, or God has to pop in and show them how to do it.
