EEW! EEW! EEK! EEW!
This spider was perched rather precariously above our veranda, here in suburbia. Does this look like a suburbanite to you??
What the f#@% is something like that doing here?? This is the kind of spider that created Spiderman - not the kind that a handful of Kleenex and a sturdy shoe could take care of . . .
Vampirenomad?? Rubber ducky?? Cass?? Selkie?? Ladybug & Nomi?? Digger?? Lydia?? Susa?? haley-o?? I know you have my back on this one!
EEW!! EEW!! EEW!!
But alas, my burly bear was able to quickly dispose of it before it procreated and attempted a hostage takeover of The Woods.
I just know I'm going to have creep-crawly nightmares tonight . . .
*Homie Bear here again*
Yeah so, it was Ursis Subursis versus Shelob's great-great-granddaughter. And the bear won. Bears ALWAYS win. We now leave you with this passage from Professor Tolkien:
Great horns she had, and behind her short stalklike neck was her huge swollen body, a vast bloated bag, swaying and sagging between her legs; its great bulk was black, blotched with livid marks, but the belly underneath was pale and luminous and gave forth a stench. Her legs were bent, with great knobbed joints high above her back, and hairs that stuck out like steel spines, and at each leg's end there was a claw.
