Who's your daddy?

[ving]

Rebecca made a sign when we first move into our current house which said something unsavoury about smoking in teh house :rolleyes:
I moved the said sign in search for creapy crawlies to snap and found a daddy longlegs. didnt realise they looked so scarey close up! :eek:

Funny looking things, they are!

Nice macros!

Being an arachnophobe (at least for larger units of the arachnid family) I don't appreciate you doing that to me, David.

They also said to be very poisonous too, but they're fangs are too small to puncture human skin.

the i wont link you to Paul Haese's huntsman... now thats a scarey pic!


I heard they have pretty potent venoms too. dangerous to bugs i guess.
thanks for the feedback peeps :)

[Astroman]

Ahh Pauls Huntsman is really good, you can see the blood coming off the fangs..... Well not really but its a good pic.

Reminds me of that Alien movie with Sigourny Weaver :scared:

As for the ultra venomous status of daddy long legs, that was disproved on the Myth Busters show, albeit with an American species.

yes but ours are more deadlierer (yes thats a word :P) than the poncey USA ones :P
