Awesome looking Spider!!!

Omg, thank goodness we don't have them in our neck of the woods. I hate spiders with a passion. BBBuuutttttt I have to admit that the color and markings on this one is awesome. Nice to view it from a distance, a very far distance with a pair of very good, high quality binoculars.

rg_girlca, we wern't far from u. We were in Vars, its right on thew border of Ont & Que, headed ur way So I think if u went into a soy-bean field u would find them there too... these spiders were every where, but that one was the largest one & the largest wild spider I have ever seen!!

What a beautiful bug! Thanks for taking the time to take a picture of it!!

Somewhere I have a picture of a gigantic orb weaver that my zoology class came across at the nearby Baylands. I'll try to find it.

[kingrattus]

OOO I've never seen one before, please post it asap. I love bugs (except magits & grubs).

[rg_girlca]

Well Kingrattus, I hope they stay near the border cause that's far enough away for me. Also I don't think I will be going into any soy-bean fields in my lifetime if that is what I might run into.
Oh I've got goosebumps just thinking about it.

[kingrattus]

I just might hunt u down & mail one to u.. hehehe I work in a post office so it wont be hard to find u hehehehe

[rg_girlca]

You wouldn't be that mean.........Would you?

[kingrattus]

heheheh, u'll find out in a couple of days >8)

[rg_girlca]

Note to self. Do not, I repeat, DO NOT open, under any circumstances, any mail that is postmarked from Ottawa, Ontario.

[kingrattus]

heeheh.. I'll tell u a little secret. Ottawa isn't 100% ottawa. & the post offices stamp the old city names still. do u know all the cities in ottawa?? hehehe or I could mail it in Que, or just not post mark it muhahahahaha!!

Even better, I'll hand deliver it, we like road trips here, muhahahahahaaaa!!
