Eeeeek! Run for your life!

Where's John Goodman ala Arachnophobia when you need him?

We have a composter out back by the shed. There's always a lot of activity in it, including a garden spider the size of a '74 Gremlin. No, seriously. It's huge. And it has been taking care of a rather large brood... or about-to-be brood.


Well, the other day, as I was walking by, they all hatched. At once. This picture was about 10 minutes after it started because I had to run in the house and get the camera. There were actually thousands of these little fellows! It was crazy cool! I only wish I had my camera with me when it started, because it was amazing!
