I tell you, the things you find on the web these days....
 
that is a HORRIBLE way to die as a bird... bet it never saw that coming.

-dodo

edit; bird has been on certain spider menus for a while now... take tarantula's, big fangs and shit designed to catch small rodents, birds etc... not in webs though.
 
Hmmm, I don't stray into the image dump these days.

Fckn Stern!

/shakes fist
 
Most of the time its the sick individuals that get eaten by spiders, if I'm not mistaken. I highly doubt a perfectly healthy bird would get stuck in a web like that... but then again I'm not an expert.
 
Apparently if a spider could weave a web with silk as thick as a penicl, provided the web was big enough, it could stop a 747 mid-flight.

Read that somewhere, so this doesnt really surprise me. Those Finches arent really that big, and lot of spiders are bigger, ESPECIALLY in Australia.

South Africa has the Baboon spider, which is literally bigger than your hand, but as leathal as a kitten.
 
Well I am an expert and I know that The Golden Orb Weaver spins a strong web high in protein because it depends on it to capture large insects for food.

So thats why it got caught.
 
im from africa man trust me you get some huge ****ers over here.
when i was 8 one of them chased me all round the garden

so damn them, damn them all to hell!

Jesus.... and I get creeped out by the ones that get the size of a quarter at the most.... (and they run in terror when you come near them).

Was pretty neat, one day I saw what looked like a large wasp struggling in a web, but then i saw him break free and snatch the spider right off his web and carried him off. That's about as crazy at it gets here.
 
SOMEONE IS REPOSTING AN IMAGE I POSTED'ED SOMEWHERE AT SOME TIME

..but mental case is usually curable ....bampot ...not so much ..although mental cases sometimes get lobotomys so they become bampots anyways




btw, thanks I didnt know what a bampot was, now I do :) :thumbs:
 
Argh **** you I'm going to bed in a minute. Bye bye sleep. :(
 
That bird is pretty much ****ed.




Also, cheerio BadHat's sleep!

AWESOME.
 
Good for the Spider, he won't need to work for another few weeks or so.
 
****!! a spider the size of my f-ing hand (no exxagerations) just chased my mother out the bathroom. had to kill the bastard with a mop! now im all excited and aggressive!
GRRRR GET SOME!!!!
 
This is the part where paranoia sets into the members of this forum that hate spiders.
 
I honestly think if that spider landed me while I was walking around in the backyard I would pee so hard I would die of dehydration.
 
The only place I don't mind finding a spider in my house:

 
no. That's a guy who goes by spiderman, according to the image.



check this shit out. I'm in my bathroom takin a piss, and for some reason I tilted my head back, I guess it was out of relief, when I see an enormous ugly spider on my ceiling right above my head. One of the biggest I've come across outside of a pet store. He looked like he was sleeping, which would make sense because it was dark as hell in there before I turned the light on.

I went to my room to get my reliable spiral notebook - the one that has faithfully claimed many an insect and arachnid life, and I come back in the bathroom ... the ****er was gone.

I said, "Where did you go, you mother****er?" and he started crawling down the wall. BAM! I swung and mostly missed, he scrambled and went down a web a bit and BAM. Whacked him again, mostly crushing him. He fell onto the toilet tank, barely able to move, laying in a small stain of guts.

I informed him of his fatal mistake, trespassing on my ceiling. I often will let spiders live in my house, but once they venture onto my ceiling, where they can get the drop on me, well, that can't be forgiven.

I hope you enjoyed tonight's story. Sweet dreams.
 
Stop killing spiders, you ****s. :<
