Head-hunting spiders

I was accosted this evening upon entering the bathroom, by a rather sprightly huntsman which felt it necessary to jump on my head as I opened the door. Happily for me though, it jumped off again virtually straight away, such that I had enough time to realise something was in my hair, but not enough… Read more
