    I was sure that was photoshopped or something. I hope I never run into one of those! Poor bird.

    I still can't get over the size of the spider! I can easily imagine the size of the finch, which makes it one BIG spider as spiders go. That give me the heebee jeebees! I don't mind spiders, although I'm not to keen on running into their webs when I'm doing field work. Not sure what I'd do if I saw something that big lurking on the web.

    Looks like something you'd see on a Grade-B SciFi movie. Giant Spider Terrorizes Neighborhood!

    Well THAT explains it.

    My husband has an irrational fear of spiders...even tiny ones. He says it developed when he spent 3 years in Australia. Now I see why!

    My brother is arachnaphobic, seriously I have to kill them for him and I don't know why. Maybe he saw a photo like this ages ago?

    Oh my...

    I love feeding my birds, and I love nature. But... Wow...

    I just read a quote in a mag tonight made once by Vincent Van Gogh, "If you truly love nature, you will find beauty everywhere".

    Gheez... I know the world has to have survival of the fittess, but that's almost Mother Nature's irony... birds are normally predators to spiders. Not the other way around!
