stunningly beatiful
although I have a great fear of spiders, I can't seem to think of them as "ugly". They are truly beatiful creatures, only some have a really bad poison

Thanks for adding 'Grey' to your favourites. I think this is a very elegant spider. My wife doesn't agree. She doesn't like the idea of being classed in the same category as a spider. I think some spiders are beautiful but there are some truly ugly ones too.

True enough, but macro does make it look bigger than it really is.

of course, but I googled the beast just to see how big he actually is, because the macro looked incredibly sharp! funny how they look all furry up-close I love the details on the head!

Your English is fine, my Italian is almost non-existant.
Thanks for adding 'Grey' to your favourites and for choosing 'Grey' as the favourite spider in the contest. Also for your nice comment.

Grazie.

Thanks. You have some awesome spiders on Christmas Island. I would like to see top views of the big one - Spider 1, 2 & 3. Do you know what kind of spider it is?

woaohhh so adorable Is this your pet? I would have the urge to cuddle (him/her?) a little too hard, I'm afraid.

Drumlanrig In reply to neyali [2009-08-31 07:10:59 +0000 UTC]

I don't really think you would like to cuddle her. She has a nasty bite - necrotising.
No, it is not my pet, I released her back into the wild.
They do look rather soft and cuddly, I must admit.

eeeuggh... I'll definitely keep that in mind if I ever spot one. I hope you don't catch them with your bare hands!
