I was washing/waxing the 944 when I found this jumping spider on the car. I kept flicking him off the car so that I wouldn't crush him but he kept climing right back on it.



I did flick him off before going back in the garage because I figured a jumping spider probably wouldn't last too long in there. Of course, he's probably already back on the car...

i'm gonna troll your thread....


BB,

a few years ago i was with a couple of friends on the way to go surf at this perfect reef about 25 miles north of Mazatlan and on the road out of town something about the size of a small turtle happened to catch my eye just as i passed..... it was moving into the road, and i feared it might be a terrapin about to get smushed. i decided to stop and see if i could detour his soon-to-be fatal walk across the road.

as we approached, our thoughts of good will turned to horror. it was an nasty tarantula as big as Obama's fat head.


so, i'll take your spider any time.

That's a big, effin' tarantula!

The only tarantula that I have ever encountered in the wild was in my hotel room in San Antonion. I'm not sure that counts as "in the wild", tho...

Haha, I used to have a spider that lived in the mirror housing of my NA when I first bought it way back when. Every morning I would wake up and there would be a new web down from the mirror to the door. I had neither the heart nor the desire to evict him, but he vacated voluntarily after about a month.

Nice pic! You can even see him spinning his web. Any special camera?

He probably was hoping you'd take the car out so he could tag along for a ride

Take care!

I think the web came from him getting tired of being flicked off the car. He actually started out on the roof before crawling back on the front bumper.

The camera wasn't anything special, tho...
