Every once in a while I'd see her patrolling the kitchen and dining room.
If you have spiders, you need them.

(8,049 posts)Some are scary-looking, too fast to catch, or just unlucky or appear at an inconvenient time (like when I'm getting ready for bed). My husband thinks I'm weird for making the effort to release them outside.

(60,065 posts)I watch one stalking its prey. I blinked my eyes and it had already captured its prey. Fast little bugger.

(484 posts)Great shot, the hairs on her body practically glow. The reflection is a cool effect, too. I love their faces with all the eyes. Wouldnt it be weird but interesting to have so many views of the world?
Like others have said, I usually try to capture spiders and put them back outside (Im in SoCal, so low temperature isnt usually a problem). My husband freaks out about them and gets frustrated with me, but I always explain that, overall, spiders are the good guys. Arachnids rock!
