This picture was taken at the Crane Point Nature Preserve in the Florida Keys while attending WSP '05. Glad it wasn't in my tent!!!

Jay here is another view of one of those spiders. They are very common here in Texas and I have seen them get pretty BIG

That is a beautiful picture of the Banana Spider.

We have them all over, my nephew catches flies and pops them into the web to feed them. :S

We just usually call her Jason's Mom, because of the mask that she looks like she is wearing. - Christine
