Spiders

Yes, it’s that time of year again.   Once more the city is being invaded by giant spiders.   I don’t think anyone really enjoys being around spiders, even though they do eat other bugs.   I got bit by a spider recently and my doctor was too busy to see me.   So I was at the veterinarian’s and had the vet take a look.  Not poisonous, so it was all good (except it did hurt).

You need to be careful not to get caught in their giant webs.  This one’s web blew down in some big winds, so the neighborhood is safe for now.

Some are relatively harmless.

And then there are the delicious spiders.

Some spiders look harmless, but are very dangerous to be around.

  1. Hi Janet,

    Those a quite adorable delicious spiders and appalling giant ones.

    I enjoy your humor and am glad the bite wasn’t poisonous. I was kindly avoiding a web once while snipping the massive yew in my backyard; all of a sudden, a shooting pain in my hand (silly lady, I wasn’t wearing gloves). Felt the pain travel up my arm which swelled quite considerably. I have great sympathy for flies. Gloves for me from then on.
