    I am not a spider fan and commend you on getting close enough to take the pictures.

    Ah the faithful old Daddy Long Legs. I, as all young boys did, pulled many the leg off them for entertainment when I was a wee lad. Then I grew a conscience and can't bear to see it done now. As far as I know they have a deadly poison that can kill a human. The only problem... they have no teeth :rolleyes:
