I had no idea that this big guy was on his lunch break until I d/l these images on my computer. Then it dawned on me the reason why he was so willing to be photographed!! Yikes. He's called Pisaurina mira, better known as Nursery Web Spider.
Oh no fair! you can't use big spiders! they have to be incredibly small so you have to take like 50 picts to get one good one! Very cool, I love spiders.
