What bugged me last night

Daniel — 10/16/2004 10:02:03 PM (archived)

.. Chasing one of these hand-sized critters - a huntsman spider:

pretty harmless, but big, smart for a bug, and fast as anything. Don't know if it's the same one I caught in a jar a few days ago and chucked out the window .. these things seem to be going for my (probably warmer) corner of the house.

Did the same with this one .. so maybe it will return .. or maybe it will just settle down somewhere and post to CE or Flame.
