These guys seem to be clumsy, I’ve had a handful fly into me while I’m working outside or they zip right past me.
Wow! That is amazing!Took a group out for a zipline adventure in the jungle a few days ago, came across this Shelob-sized critter after a monsoon downpour:

fishhead0103666 don't watch this video before going to bed, it'll give you nightmares lol:
Haha! That is so cute!Just come across this thread. You guys are so lucky having creatures like these living amongst you. We have nothing exotic like this in the uk. We do have foxes, badgers, grey squirrels, rabbits and hedgehogs but the only time we usually see them is when they're roadkill!
Mind you, can't grumble too much. At least we don't get snakes, scorpions and dinner plate sized spiders.
My son loves rummaging in the garden for beetles and such. He found a common house spider one day and insisted on putting it in a little box and letting it live in the house. So I put it in the spare bedroom and now and again we'd catch a fly and feed the little guy. My son soon got bored and so it became my job. This was about 12 months ago and the spider still lives in its little box and muggins here still feeds it. Below is a picture of the little box it lives in. It's difficult to see but there is a carpet of thin web outside the entrance where I throw the flies for it to get.
I know, I know, I know, I really need to get a life but there you have it.

That's cute haha!Haha! That is so cute!
Kinda reminds me of a few years back my daughter and son told me they had a pet spider in their room and how they made it a home and were feeding it. I thought it was an imaginary pet since they normally ask me to remove bugs from their room if they happen to find any.
This goes on for a few days till they ask if I want to see it. I say ok and they run off.
My son comes back a minute later to show me this!
