That's a nasty looking fellow, but at least the neon yellow color that covers its abdomen will make it easier to see.

ann-marie Funny story. My family love Lucas the spider; I sent them the videos. But my aunt and uncle, their grandson is also named Lucas, at first they thought that was their Lucas doing the voice, like maybe there was an app where you can voice a cute animated spider. It of course wasn’t their Lucas but he talks and acts a lot like Lucas the spider

Now there's a cut spider, and it can even entertain or put you to sleep when it plays the violin.  Bravo!

Great name, tree trunk spider, because it looks as if it's wearing bark for armor.

The Spider in the photo only has three long legs, so it must have had an accidental amputation.  The article was very interesting.

Now that's a very colorful spider.  It looks like it's ready for a Pride parade.

That's what I thought, too.

I don't know where its wandering, as long as it isn't anywhere near where I live.

That happened to me.  I let it have the bedroom, and slept on the couch.

For some reason, I dreamed about Hagrid and Aragog last night. Aragog was telling Hagrid that at least he didn't try to eat Hermoine...

But did Aragog try or want to eat YOU?
