Ewwww!

spider-taking-away-caterpillarsmallWell, that’s it… I have expressed my distaste for those horrible caterpillars that are literally eating the leaves off our trees! They have disgusted me so terribly that I actually gloated as the goosebumps ran up and down my arms as I took this photo today!

Yes indeed! That is one ugly looking spider taking away a caterpillar! Take that caterpillar!!!

Ugh.  I really need to get out more, huh?

  • I don’t like caterpillars either but slugs give me the heebie jeebies.

  • Eeeewww, that is SO gross!!!! I’m very impressed you stayed still long enough to take the photo, I’d have been half-way down the garden flapping around in general disgustedness!

    Slugs make me ewwwww as well.

    I do like caterpillars: but then I can see the destruction they cause so one cheer for the spider [which freak me out...given we have so many here I should move really :) ].

  • Catching up after being away in London …. caterpillars have eaten every single leaf on my gooseberry bush and it’s a month till I would expect to pick the fruit! (Strikes me you may not be familiar with gooseberries – I’ve given three American friends a first with them)
