[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 64666, member: 3419"] So sorry, Lothlorien. Wow. Incredible pictures, Witzend. I thought brown recluses were smaller and more brown than green. Almost all our neighbors have had black widows, but I've heard the brown recluse are more often found in the mountains than in the beach areas like where we live. It's still a good idea to keep a lookout. In yrs past, we've had a beautful Writing Spider (Garden Spider) that was bright yellow and black. Their webs have a zipper effect running along them. Their bite can really hurt so it's best to use a nice lens on the camera so you don't have to get too close. Supposedly that's the spider that gave the author the idea for Charlotte's Web. We also have wolf spiders... our N Am version of tarantulas. Those things are huge. They don't spin. They dig holes. If they're in the house I kill them. If they're outside I let them live, because they're eating other things I don't want in the house! So far we've only been bitten by regular spiders and have had no problems. [/QUOTE]
