Day 298 - Giant arachnid!


Day 298 - Giant arachnid!
Originally uploaded by Karin Beil

While out for a walk with the dog this evening, we came across this giant arachnid. She didn't quite know what to make of it and gave it a growl & a couple of barks before moving on. This purple spider is an air-filled Halloween decoration and it lies flat & deflated during the day, but swells to this size at night when the motor is on. Lots of yards in our neighborhood are ready for Halloween next weekend!

  1. Gosh, I'm not surprised your dog didn't know what to make of it...

    I'm not sure what to make of it, even after I've read your blog:-)

    Thank for the post...

  2. How cute! I prefer the one in your picture to the one that dropped on my keyboard this morning from my ceiling!
