monster in the lavender


She has caught at least 3 honey bees and 1 moth already today. It is huge and gives me the heebee jeebees!! If it were sitting in my hand (blahhhhhhh!!!) it would take up my whole palm.

I hate spiders!!! I really do! But this is a very beautiful and cool picture! Thanks for sharing your monster! If I wake up with nightmares tonight, I shall blame you;)

That spider must be a very relaxed spider, laying around all day eating in a garden of lavender! Oh wait, that sound like Dad and I...Not.

This is a Banded Argiope..not harmful unless you are an insect.

Crap! I guess I'm never coming to your house. I don't want to be eaten.
