WARNING: MASSIVE spider content... don't look unless you think you can handle it!


as i was reading on the sofa last night, i peered over my book to see the most MASSIVE spider i have ever seen in my life... not sure if it was on the inside or outside of the window, i quickly got up to find out... as soon as i realized that it was on the out side, i screamed. i quickly called jenny over to see the most MASSIVE spider ever, and then quickly grabbed my camera to document the massive, i mean MASSIVE size so that yall could see it. it spun a web covering almost the entire window! my pics didn't come out too great, but this morning the spider was still there (despite the nightmare i had showing it was gone) so my dad took a few pics from the inside and outside. frustrated with the fact that every picture looked the same, i wanted more action. so what did i do? i found a dead swatted fly that we had swatted earlier and we fed the spider. the moment the fly hit the web, the spider darted straight toward the fly and immediately started wrapping it. i have never seen a spider move so fast. it was gross, yet interesting. i will let the pics tell the rest of the story. it's pretty crazy because you can see the web coming out of the spiders but when he is wrapping the fly... which was actually pretty big. i am convinced that this is the type of spider that would run towards you if you attempted to kill it, not away like all those other spiders. oh, and we did find out that this is a barn spider
