Watch your step!

I almost stepped on this one! I'm not sure what kind of spider it is. It was on the ground and it had a tunnel retreat. It looks like a fat grass spider. If you know its identity, please let me know. :0)

I'm posting this one for the scary theme.

One of the 'funnel' spiders, but that's all I know about them. Great capture. Love the purple speckles on the web!

Great capture, if it was Australia, I'd guess at a 'funnel-web' but I think they only occur here.

@tonydebont Yikes! I watched a show on Nat Geo about Sydney funnel web spiders. They're SCARY! :0)

@cjwhite here's a quote from the great Wikipedia
"Sydney funnel-webs are one of the most dangerous spiders in the world and are regarded by some to be the most deadly."
