you know, you probably just imagined that hyphen. I'm sure a bird eating spiders is not too uncommon a sight.

On that note, check out ant mimicry in spiders. Pretty neat. :)
check out urticating hairs in tarantulas. . .
oh my good god im terrified of spiders
i hate the way they look
i hate the way they move
i hate their long legs
i hate their beady little eyes
i hate their mouths
if i saw a spider in my room id feel nervous sleeping for days. just the other day i heard my mum telling my nephew there was a huge spider in her room and she tried to vaccum it but because it was so big it just fell off the wall and she couldnt find it. from that point my bedroom door only opened when i was leaving/entering
Holy, the biggest spider I've came across was about an inch tall. I'm cool with them and usually just flick them outside but if I came across a large one like in this thread I'd be calling the police.

This is the UK (&Ireland) we're talking about mind. Don't really get many nasties here, thank goodness. I think there's some spiders behind my bookcase, but I can't get at them unfortunately. I killed the mum by accident when I was trying to catch her and I've chucked out one baby. I guess I'll have to throw the rest out as they come. She was only a couple of centimetres across. I hope she didn't spawn too many.
I don't like them when they're near me, esp when next to or on my bed when I'm to go to sleep. But I never kill them, I think it's wrong. I just catch them in a glass or the like and let them out.
I quite like spiders. However, I do teach a 16 year-old lad who's petrified of them and just can't move if he sees one. I save him from them on a regular basis.
Damn Nerd, that's one big spider! Spiders creep me out big time! I live in the country and I have LOTS of them. I sleep without a shirt on and nothing gets me out of bed faster than the feeling of tiny legs scurring across my chest. One time I felt a tickle under my arm and went to scratch it only to come up with a handful of wolf spider. ARRRRRGH! But I think the bat that flew in last week was even worse. It kept dive bombing me until I finally ended it's life with a well timed swoop of the old hay sweeper! HA! Where's a good fire spell when you need it??? :P
I've never really understood why people are so afraid of spiders. Yeah, I know you wouldn't want one to fall in your shirt or anything and have it bite you, but it's not like they're all that harmful when you're not touching them.
they're easy enough to overlook to where you touch them when you don't want to, and BAM fear-bite.
I was at my uncle's house today and he had a miniature clock spider on his doorbell and a small furry black jumping spider with white spots on his window screen. . .
I hate you all. Now I'm paranoid about lying here on my bed in the corner in the relative dark. :/ Never been bitten noticeably that I can remember, luckily. I don't mind spiders too much. They're kinda fun to watch when they scurry away. :] Though, sleeping near them usually isn't the best. Thank goodness suburbia of southern California isn't host to anything remotely nasty. :D
I would never sleep in that bed ever again.
No need for discussion: here's why........
