Uruguay Farm Photo #26: Backyard Tarantula

by Maya on March 8, 2010

Uruguay tarantulaFor those who prefer a still shot to the video of the tarantula I nearly stepped on in our backyard recently, I offer this photo.   This was taken before we put the camera on the grass and let him crawl over it to show everyone how big he is.

I hope I never see him again.  I am now very, very careful when I walk outside with an armload of laundry to hang on the line.

What spider? I am picturing you hanging laundry on the line. :)

Well, I DO love hanging laundry on the line. Now, I am simply that much more mindful when I do it! ;-)
Thank you, spider.
