Investiture Achievement Connection: This Honor is related to the Investiture Achievement requirements for GUIDE Nature Study which require (as one of two options) doing a spider web study project which meets Requirement 5 of this Honor. This Honor is a popular choice for the Level 2 or 3 Nature Honor required of FRONTIER GUIDES. |
The Challenging Part
The most challenging requirement of this honor is probably this:
1. Do one of the following:
- a. Collect, identify, and preserve at least 16 species of spiders. Place on each specimen bottle a label showing the locality and date of capture and the spider's common or scientific name.
- b. Make colored drawings or paintings of at least 16 species of spiders, life size or larger and in natural coloring. Label each with its common or scientific name.
- c. Take color photos of at least 16 species of spiders. Identify each picture as to its locality, date taken and the common or scientific name of the spider.
