At work, I found this huge catface spider in the lilac bush when I was watering. What a beauty, more for the fact I haven't seen a spider of this sort for many years than actual beauty.......:-) Moved all over the yard during the year.

Thanks. I thought it was a real beauty, I never see one this large here. The grounds beyond is the perennial yard I tend, the shrub the web is in is in my shrub rows. I think it moved about and hunted most of the grounds as the summer progressed. Fascinating things, though they give me the creeps sometimes too.

Thank you BB. Love me some spiders, even though they can creep me out now and then too. This one was really big and interesting.
