Macrophotography - Dock Spider!steemCreated with Sketch.

Hi everyone. Dock spiders can get pretty big, up to 8 cm. I am surprised I have let myself get close enough to even photograph them a couple of times. If you have ever hung out on a dock in this part of the world you have no choice but to tolerate them. Don't worry though, these arachnids are not poisonous.

You are a brave girl getting that close up. I have a spider phobia got bit by one and swell right up so now when I have a Close Encounter of the Third Kind with a spider I am Gone with the Wind. Thanks for the close up thanks for letting me know they are not poisonous as I bet they can give a whomper of a bit.

Hahaha The way you said that made me burst out laughing Donna :) Thanks!

lol you will be happy to know that I don't think I have any more photos of dock spiders :P at least I don't think so!

You can post as many as you want. I was being dramatic. LOL

Great photo Deb! Spiders don't usually scare me or should I say small spiders! This one did give me a bit of the heebie jeebies! ;)

lol yeah I don't mind small ones to much either but these suckers get so big that freak me out a little too. Thanks Deb :)

You're very welcome! = )
