Nice.

'N' creepy.

Don't think I've ever seen a black and gray orb weaver. Ours are the traditional black and yellow:

The last one I saw (8 years ago or more) was yellow as well and seemed to double in size in a few weeks. This new one is a bit smaller so I was wondering if the color would come out after a few good meals. Hopefully it sticks around. This is it's 3rd location in as many days, but it should get a nice buffet in front of that light.

Ima assume that yours is the silver variety, rather than what I called gray.

Nice!

Thanks, G-digr, cool facts page. Silver's probably correct, coming out fuzzy gray with my zoomed in camera phone.

Charlie Daniels?

It's a beautiful creature anyway. But even though I have no fear of the old biders (except Australian ones, because everything there is a killer) I'm not sure I'd want it on my lovely yellow cosy throw. Or jumper. Or whatever it is.

Looks a bit big to make me happy in my sleeping environment.

That spider is a Brown Recluse, which has a bite best described as positively horrible (google brown recluse bite pictures, and brace yourself). Because of the violin pattern on its back, it's known as a 'fiddler'. Charlie Daniels is a well-known American fiddle player/singer. You may have heard his most famous song, The Devil Went Down To Georgia.

We (Clan Gravdigr) refer to brown recluse spiders as Charlie Daniels Spiders, trying to find humor in a nightmare.

Given your self-described proclivities towards men of a husky nature, you may find Mr. Daniels to have been a beautiful creature himself.

Aha! Thank you!

A headline on the BBC website made me laugh in its matter-of-fact tone.
I won't reproduce it exactly here, in case it hits someone's work firewall and gets them into trouble. Which would be silly, as it's just a name for part of the body.

So imagine it: Spider bites Australian man on p..... again.
And follow the link if you're not at work.
No photos or rude words apart from the anatomically correct one.

Might make some men wince though.

If Australian spiders eat mice... what eats them?
