Crazy spiders.

We have a ton of spiders spinning webs from the edge of our rooftop down to our bushes. For someone who really really does not like spiders it isn't all that fun, however....there are some days that I do not like mosquitoes and gnats more. So, these friendly spiders have been catching the biting bugs that we don't like. There are 3 huge garden spiders out front. Kylie has named them, Spitine, Mistine, Brotine, and Sistine. Anyways, the 2nd picture is of the female spider mating with another spider...the male supposedly dies and is eaten by the female when they're done. Crazy. (and it is really as huge as it looks)
