About that spider pic from yesterday...
So I did like mordyn4 suggested, and I posted the picture of the spider from yesterday's post on spiderphotos. They were very friendly and incredibly enthusiastic (one person said the picture is "super cool"), and they told me that the spider (I'm going to call it Betty from now on :P) was a female wolf spider, and that those things on her back are her babies. Yes, those are tiny baby spiders. O_O
I looked at the article on Wikipedia they gave me a link to and all I can say is: OMG IT'S HIDEOUSLY UGLY!!! It's even worse than on my picture (if that's possible)! And THOSE REALLY ARE ITS BABIES!!!
See, the scary thing was that when I saw Betty, she wasn't moving as she was trying not to be noticed. I, umm, sort of wanted her to move, so I kind of wanted to poke her a bit... with a stick. :/ A LONG one. Gently of course. Just to get her off the path. I didn't do it though. Imagine if I did, and all of those baby spiders jumped off their mum and climbed up my leg!!! @_@ & :O
Now to all those people who said they're never going to Slovenia because of that picture. The wolf spider can be found everywhere. That's right. There's probably one in your back yard right now. Hatching babies. LOTS of them. *evil laughter*
Sweet dreams everyone! :D
