Bought my attention to this, the granddaddy of spiders, a Huntsman sitting on her wardrobe door.

Needless to say they both survived

From the first shot you don't realise that the head & eyes are such a relatively very small part of this spider - unlike most where they represent a larger % of the animal. Very interesting to see.

Dear goodness

I'd have screamed blue murder if I spotted that 'thing'

Great picture - but I do NOT want to see that again
let the education continue

I wondered what that noise was!

I'm OK with most spiders but that one is definitely scream worthy.

I heard the crocs and snakes are the only ones enjoying the Queensland floods.

Hope you are keeping dry.

No word from our daughter-in-law for a while. I assume she is out of internet reach, not eaten by a shark off the barrier reef or eaten by a croc in a flood while trying to get to Brisbane.

We would have, but the spiders ate 'em all...
