    Giant Lichen Orb Weaver spider

    Went camping this last weekend in Western North Carolina (Brevard, NC) and found this beauty hanging out by the laundry room door of the campgrounds bath house.
    It's a Giant Lichen Orb Weaver spider.... Not deadly in the slightest if you don't count the heart attack one might have if one found it crawling in ones hair. LOL









    Not sure what she had wrapped up and was eating but it was pretty big. The Spiders abdomen was he size of a cherry tomato

    We need to get Helo over here to see this! He enjoys these sorts of things

    After the apocolypse, spiders may be our only source for protein. ooey, gooey, creepy, crawly protein. mmm

    And just for LH... The OTHER white meat:

    Give a man fire, and he'll be warm for a day!
    Light a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life!

    Cat's are food... not friends!

    If you're going to fight, then fight like you're the third monkey on the ramp into Noah's arc... and brother, it's starting to rain.

    actually, cat is a red meat, and can be kinda stringy. Don't ask how I know.
