My sewing machine sits right in front of a window where I can look out on these gorgeous bushes. Okay, so they are not that great but I noticed something on Monday...
a gigantic spider that I have named Helen. I am no great fan of bugs but I have become quite fascinated with Helen. Monday and Tuesday she was quite lethargic, but today I finally saw her move. Let me tell you that Helen could be a speed racer, she is very quick and I have a front row seat as she wraps her prey in web stuff and then devours it. These pictures are all taken through the glass of my window, I wish I could get a better pic, but I am absolutely not going anywhere near that thing.
I haven't taken a ruler out to get an official measurement, but from the tip of her top of her legs to the tip of her bottoms legs I'd say she's about a 4 incher. I would like to try and identify her but since I can only see her underside it might be difficult.
Helen found some yummy dinner!
