Here's something I have not seen in a couple of days:

A thread with spider pictures. DO NOT scroll down if ya don't want to see it!

:evilgrin:

1. That's an interesting one...what kind is it?

I've never seen one of those before......

:hi:

[Dave Reynolds]

2. That is a wolf spider,

quite common in my neck of the woods, and when I come upon one I am always struck by how friggin' big they are.

Not tarantula big, but big enough to give me the willies....

[CaliforniaPeggy]

3. Wolf spider, huh?

Almost as big as a tarantula...I'd have the willies as well....

I hear the tarantulas move slowly...hopefully these do as well......


Glad there aren't any in my neighborhood....:scared:

[Dave Reynolds]

5. These move quickly,

especially when they run towards you....

4. I've always sort of had a fondness for wolf spiders

They jump! I've lived in a few basement apartments, so I got used to these guys. I like to think they ate the other bugs, and saved me from being bitten.

The centipedes...I never got used to.

7. I found a bunch

in my woodpile, both in my basement and outside.

I cannot profess any fondness for them, but am always surprised at how damn big they get and how fast they move.

6. yikes ... ummmm by YOUR neck of the woods...

do you mean MY neck of the woods too?

:scared:

[Dave Reynolds]

8. Why yes,

although my neck of the woods has moved to Chelsea as of a coupla weeks ago.

So, watch your step when you next go out....booohaahaahaa...:hi:
