  quiet- Can't see the hour glass on the belly, but it sure looks like a black widow to me.

  you terrible murderer. What a good picture. Pálmi sent Þór in the house with a spider on his arm and thought I would scream but I just started looking at him. did not even know I was supposed to scream. lol.

  meems ~  I am glad this guy was outside.  I would have had to spray my whole house had it been inside!  LOL
   
  beyond ~ haha, I know its not a black widow, but it has eight legs and thats all it needed to be a dead one!
   
  battycat ~  I wish I could sympathise with you!  I do know they are good for eating insects etc, but........ they are better dead! LOL
   
  secret ~ he was fairl big, but this is a close up of him.  He was kind enough to stay still and let me take his pic before he met his death!
   
  skald ~ Thor had a spider on his arm???  yuck!  I would have run!  Boys and their bugs and insects!  LOL

  Well that's great camera work as always!  One more spider gone is ok with me!  I know they have their purpose--but that purpose is not to crawl around on you--or jump on you! And I hate walking into a web!

• quietone said on Sep 05, 2008....

  wombie ~ I am with you on all the above!!!  and I would have walked right into him had it been dark... ewe, just the thought!

  QO: here's a three-liner poem based on your pic.

• KMT said on Sep 05, 2008....

  blek, that thing is terrifying

• quietone said on Sep 05, 2008....

  vreidr ~ I went and checked out your poem!  :)

  KMT ~ I agree!! He isn't so terrifying now though..... he's dead!

• hotaka said on Sep 06, 2008....

  Taking a leap of faith, was it? I read they can't see well but then how do they know to jump from a high place? No fear. They are lighter and can land softly thanks to wind resistence from their legs. And in a worst case scenario they can cast a line. I guess this one just didn't count on the bug spray. What impresses me most is that you got the photo!

• queenparanoia said on Sep 06, 2008....

  ewwwwwwwwwwwwww i hate spiders!!!!!! ;-)

• quietone said on Sep 06, 2008....

  hotaka ~ I think spiders can see and also sense that one is scared to death of them!  I know this from experience!  LOL  This one, was casting a line, but waited for me to get the photo... little did he know he cast a line to his death! 

  queenie ~ Hey, I am with you girl!  do you have big spiders where you are??

• queenparanoia said on Sep 06, 2008....

  yes... not really scared of it... i just find them icky...
